I'm determined to give everything I have to give the country a team that they're proud of and one that they're going to enjoy watching play and develop.

Good teams score late goals.

Harry Maguire's potential is huge.

I've often said it's not just the level of your opponent: it's can you handle wearing the shirt and playing for England?

I was probably scarred by getting the sack at Middlesbrough.

Every time a young player comes in, he is excited and wants to prove himself, but also in football, the other players want to prove themselves to any new player that comes in, so that competition is the only way to stimulate performance.

If you are not constantly improving and learning, then you are going to be stuck and not progress.

You have to be savvy. You have to be tactically aware, because that's what makes the difference in the big matches.

You have to cope with expectation if you want to play for England.

The players can associate playing for England with enjoyment, fun, and not being under siege and feeling everything is against them. There's an energy and a connection back. That's important in the short, mid, and long term as well.

Sometimes it's not always a good decision to play if people's energy isn't quite there.

First and foremost, I love the job I'm in. I'm proud to be England manager.

I'm sure at some point in my life, I'll want to go back to club football because people will say, 'Oh well, he did OK as an international manager, but he didn't work as a club manager.'

Young players will suffer at times and have days when they can't cope or adjust.

I'm no David Beckham.

I'm slightly concerned, because as a centre-half who took a lot of knocks to the head I'm not normally synonymous with being a fashion icon.

In any sport, you're at your best when you're playing without thinking too much.

You want all players to be free of overthinking. That's when they're in a good place and a good flow.

I think one of the important things around tournaments and qualifying tournaments is the jeopardy around it.

I think we've always got to have a mind of the feeling for the supporters about the importance of each match. We've got to be careful not to make tournaments too big and then make qualifying too straightforward.

There are lots of statements that have been made and haven't led to change and reform. For me, the broader discussion around racism - education is key.

The world always changes, and teams go through evolutions.

If we are gong to be an outstanding team, we need players who are going to step up in the big moments and realise, every time they play for England, they have the chance to be involved in an iconic moment, a historic performance, and that they have that choice every time they go on the field.

I think I've made decisions for the right reasons, and I've always communicated them in a respectful way. As a manager, you can't do any more than that. I sit comfortably with that. But I've not enjoyed it.

No England international is a practice match. Every time you wear this shirt, it is of importance for you, the country, and the supporters.

Results are a consequence of doing things well and having high standards, improving the detail of how we play.

More expectation is a healthy thing and something we have to embrace.

Always, as a player, you are questioned and challenged about the next step. That's what drives the very best: they want to continually win.

Our country has been through some difficult moments recently in terms of its unity. But sport can unite.

Write your own stories.

Nobody can tell me that if players are good enough, they will come through. That is not true. There are plenty of players who are good enough.

The quality of our academy system is very high, as good as anything in the world. Around the country, lots of people in youth development are keen to get together and find a solution to that 17-to-21 age bracket and how we get those players playing.

I think we have seen evidence that being brave enough to go abroad can lead to a proper opportunity.

When the positions of so many managers is precarious, and there isn't long-term stability, I can understand why they are loath to risk.

My job is to allow people to dream. Make the impossible seem possible.

Whenever you're in an England shirt, you have an opportunity to make history.

My players' feeling is the most important thing for me.

My priority is, do my players feel supported from within their dressing room by their own federation?

You give everything you have, build friendships within your team - in international football, you give everything for your country and play in a way that you hope connects with the fans.

You expect the players to fight for their club and fight for their shirt, and when they come together, they are fighting for England.

In every position on the field, there's really strong competition.

I don't know how you get in the England squad without getting in the Arsenal team.

I don't think the qualifying fixtures excite people. They're games against countries that we are expected to beat, rightly so, and then how many we score dictates whether it's a good performance or not.

It's very difficult to pick a 17-year-old who's had 10 minutes of first-team football. You're talking about replacing senior players with some 17-year-olds who haven't played Premier League football.

If we are encouraging kids to go into academies, then presumably we are selling them the dream that they can play first-team football.

I am not sure I will ever wear a waistcoat again, frankly!

Whenever people speak, you give the opposition the opportunity to use those words as they see fit.

You always have to be conscious of how your words can provide motivation to the opposition.

You can never say you've 'made it,' because that's the day you stop progressing and improving.

I'm committed to England, simple as that. I don't need to hedge my bets in keeping doors open or keeping things alive.
