sports feelings balls
But, at the moment, when I step on the pitch, when I have the ball I know it's mine. It's just a feeling.
moving doe incredibles
What Leo does is so incredible that I have to be careful not to stand still watching him make his moves.
ideas paradise obsessed
I'm obsessed by the idea of making my mark on history. And Arsenal is my paradise.
football team believe
I am a believer in passing the ball on the ground, I was lucky to be part of teams like that at Arsenal, with the French national team and with Monaco and at Barcelona. I know you can win in other ways, but I believe that is the way football should be played.
talking people talking-about-me
People are talking about me more than they talk about Eastenders.
moving goal england
I like to score a proper goal, you know - a passing move.
team thinking league
If I had a Paul Scholes in my team, everything would be around him. At Manchester United, they saw it like that, but I think Paul Scholes is one of the best I've played against in this league, and seen anywhere.
football strong believe
Arsenal will always have a place in my heart and that is the same for so many other people too. There's a strong sense of 'family' at the Club and it is why those people that leave so often find their way back, to be around that feeling and I believe that even when you go a bit of you never leaves Arsenal anyway, that is how it has been for me. I'm just so glad that I've been able to be part of the story of the football club.
team goal helping
It's not about me, it's about how I can help my team to achieve more. And I do that through scoring goals.
football baseball team
Baseball and American football and hockey are all ahead because they have a history. The MLS is kind of new. So hopefully, in time, and with players coming and trying to develop the game, and the U.S. team also doing well - at the last World Cup, they finished above England and created some buzz.
easy guys lose love mind players scoring sometime
The thing is, don't get me wrong, I still love scoring and I hate to lose but now I see myself more as making players play better. Sometime you do what you have to do and you have to perform, that is still there, but in my mind I am thinking about making the guys around me play better and that is never an easy thing to do.
people
So few people recognize me, I can do what anyone does.
arrive sure takes wear
That is something that I always want to do when I arrive somewhere is to know about the culture of the country, about the club and make sure I know what it takes to wear the jersey.
followed huge since tony
I've followed the NBA religiously since I was a kid, and now because of my boy Tony Parker, I'm a huge Spurs fan.
