I didn't watch cartoons, I was too busy playing football.
Lampard picks his head up and knocks it out to the wing.
This is the better one. It's identical.
When I was a young boy I wanted to play for Newcastle United, I wanted to wear the number nine shirt and I wanted to score goals at St James' Park. I've lived my dream and I realise how lucky I've been to have done that.
It would be absolutely huge, as it would be for 95 percent of the Premiership clubs. I've spoken to him and tried to convince him. We're in there fighting for him.
I am fearing the worst, unfortunately - I have been injured before plenty of times so I know the scenario and I haven't got a great hope.
It was a tremendous turnaround because we were rubbish in first half.
I work with him every day and I don't see any desire missing. I hope that's the start of a run for Alan.
If the manager said I wasn't going to be a regular I'd have to consider things,
Glenn is the one who gets us up. He is the one who is preparing the team, who is coaching us and who is talking to us before and after games. He deserves all the credit and we now have something to go for for the rest of the season. I can only hope we can repay him and all the supporters.
I've never wanted to leave. I'm here for the rest of my life, and hopefully after that as well
It's a huge game for us. Defeat is not worth thinking about.
He has done me, it was blatant. The referee was five yards away and he did nothing.
Hopefully now, with the objective achieved, the players will relax a bit and you might see more style and flair.
