I was the classic midfield organiser who could also score goals.

I used to go missing a lot... Miss Canada, Miss United Kingdom, Miss World.

Pain is temporary, glory...lasts forever!

In 1969 I gave up women and alcohol - it was the worst 20 minutes of my life.

I spent a lot of money on booze, birds and fast cars. The rest I just squandered.

At Euro '92 itself, we bowed out to the eventual winners, Denmark, in our final group match.

Some games you win, some you lose, and some you draw.

Messi is the great player of this generation like there were great players in other generations.

The street is the best way to become a good footballer.

A football team represents a way of being, a culture.
