The defining factor was Frank does it for Chelsea and to have a regular penalty-taker is important for us.
We grew up together so it was nice to lead our countries against one another,
We're in form. When we make the most of our potential, we can destroy any team we come up against.
Wayne can play any position but the way he plays for Manchester United, just off the main striker, is unstoppable. He runs at players and that is what causes teams most problems.
Wayne can be whoever he wants to be. He's a great young lad and he's at the right club to be looked after and to be brought through. If he carries on doing what he's doing, creating chances for players and for himself, he's going to deserve those comparisons.
From watching him, I don't think that'll be a problem in his career,
From the word go, we're going to try and hit them as hard as we can,
I don't think I could have struck it any better but I think the goalkeeper has read where I was going to put it and that's unfortunate for me. If I had put it away, maybe it would have been all over but we're not going to know that now.
I don't think he would have a problem with any place he went to. I think he is an experienced manager and can handle it.
I don't think we've done as much conditioning work at Real Madrid as we used to do at Manchester United.
If we win the next two games, we go top of the group, that's all we have to do.
If we win the next two games then, even if we finished in second place in the group, we've got very high points. We need to win, simple as that. That's what's we're here for. We said that before the Wales game we want to get six points out of the two games and that's what we look for.
He showed once again what a great player he is and we got to swap shirts at the end.
We may be tired in the next few games, but I think we will benefit. This is the sort of work I want to do, I enjoy it and I like working hard.
