The players and a lot of people in England knew it before this tournament but now Europe is finding out about Wayne Rooney. And we're very lucky to have such a good player in our team.
If this team plays to its full potential then we can be devastating and, if we do that, hopefully we'll get a good result and beat Arsenal.
I've got my wife. I've got my four kids. I've got parents, grandparents still, and three really good friends. It's all you need. I'd rather have three really good friends than 20 good friends.
The most important thing is that he is the right man for the job. I know the majority would prefer an English boss and we have got some good English bosses out there, but there are also some great foreign managers.
I remember saying after I left that I would love to say goodbye and thank the manager and at least get a handshake.
I don't think we could have thrown anything more at them. They defended exceptionally and we just couldn't break them down. I expected a few goals but overall I wish them good luck because they are a good team.
The good thing is that they only won 1-0. It's going to be very difficult now, but we have the players to go there and win.
I think the next England manager should be someone who's going to be right for the job whether he is English or foreign. I think the players would be happy to play under anyone if they are good for the team. But all the talk needs to stop about who's coming in because we need to concentrate on a huge competition.
I was asked if the next World Cup was going to be my last and I said possibly it could be, but I hope it isn't,
I thought the first yellow was harsh and the second even harsher,
We do need to share that out because Frank's showed this season that he gets forward, he scores goals, gets in some great positions,
We have spoken about a meeting in the next couple of months, but we'll just have to wait because we've got so many matches and I need to concentrate on the football for now.
We had a meeting with the manager but that happens all the time - if the manager decides he wants a meeting with players to discuss formations or ways of playing then we'll have a meeting,
Me? I would love to be famous in America. I like the American people and I like the way they look up to Michael Jordan and Tiger Woods . I'm sure they criticize their stars occasionally but it doesn't reach the point where they ever put down their own people and their own stars. That's what's nice for me.
