Obviously winning trophies is massive in football, no matter where you are.
Whoever is in place to step forward and play that striker role has to be ready and be prepared to do the work because it is obviously a very tough job up top on your own. You have to put a shift in.
I know I like to get in the zone, maybe stick on my headphones and listen to music. It helps me concentrate and go over what we've talked about in the team meetings, so I can visualise what's ahead.
I think I'm just competitive and I demand a lot from myself. So I get frustrated if something hasn't come off for me or if a game is going against it. I like to think I channel it in the right way and do my best for the team.
Game-time is the most important thing for me. When you're playing week in, week out you have the confidence to show what you're capable of.
The situation at West Brom is very difficult for me because I've been there for so long but I've not played that many games for them.
It's very disappointing if a player pulls out of a squad when he's not injured and is maybe prioritising his club.
I just love football and I don't care who for, just as long as I'm playing and I'm happy.
When I was at Leipzig, I was coming on for the last 10 or 20 minutes, and the game has kind of gone then. You don't get a feel for how you are as a player.
