I don't want to do all weights. I want to get strong using my core and my natural power.

It is about doing everything you can so your body can perform at the highest level.

I play my best football when I'm calm mentally.

The Under-21s was a good experience for me and one I will take into the Euros.

I am quite a calm player. I do have a go at players and refs in the heat of the moment, but I never throw my toys out of the pram.

I owe a lot to my family; we're a strong unit.

'Harry Brown' is good - and I love 'The Italian Job.'

My record speaks for itself.

I do enjoy seeing footballers every day, being on the training ground.

I write like a two-year-old, and I can't spell.

All my mates are West Ham supporters; I went there at 15.

Two wide men stuck out wide leave you very open in midfield, but it's a strength as well. Going forward, it makes you pretty dangerous to anyone.

Nobody at the FA has ever explained why I was overlooked and not even asked for an interview.

To me, there's no point in having confrontation for the sake of it.

For eight years at West Ham, I made a profit. And I kept them in the Premier League. Took them into Europe.

Dave Mackay was one of the best I've ever seen. Jimmy Greaves was the greatest goal scorer, and George Best was just the best. The greatest.

Roy Race was a comic book hero, and Steven Gerrard is a real-life one.

I would love to work with a young and upcoming coach somewhere and give him some experience. Something like Gerry Francis overseeing Tony Pulis.

Luka Modric is an outstanding footballer, a great player.

You can look at stats as much as you want - and we do - but you can have too much of it. You can spend too much time looking at computers rather than looking at the real thing which is out there on the pitch. I still think that being a good judge of players is the most important thing.

I am not going to fiddle taxes. I pay my accountant a fortune to look after me.

I am completely and utterly disorganised.

I have never written a letter in my life.

I've not made my name as a wheeler and dealer. Don't say that.

We are givers, not takers.

I have not purposely gone out to try to avoid paying income tax.

I have brought up a fantastic family.

To try and nick a few quid off the income tax... Why? I am not into that. I don't need that.

I love animals, all animals - apart from cats. I'm a little bit scared of cats.

Am I scared of anything? Yeah, everything.

I don't think I can eat emu.

I told Birmingham I don't want nothing, I'm not interested in the money.

Show me someone who has never made a mistake in their life, and I'll show you a liar. It happens.

I do get text messages from people with sick jokes on when something terrible has happened. I don't read them; they make me ill. But it does happen, and I'm sure I'm not the only person who gets them.

Lots of people do that silly tweeting.

I don't know what an email is.

I have never sent a fax, and I've never even sent a text message.

I can't work a computer.

I'm a realist.

If I could help someone somewhere, help a young manager, I'd love that. I did it at Derby with Darren Wassall and had a great time.

For me, sitting there, watching them pass the ball, watching them train - you want to be around good players.

Gareth Bale could play anywhere.

Luka Modric could get into almost any team.

I don't hold grudges.

I very much doubt that it could happen again that any manager would do 20 years with a top Premiership club.

There's only so much you can say to any group of players before they stop listening.

I enjoy going to Old Trafford. I love the tradition.

I've still got a scrapbook at home of the Munich air crash. I was an Arsenal supporter, and I went with my dad every week. I would have been 11 in 1958 and remember standing at Highbury for the Busby Babes. I remember that was the last game before they jetted off to Europe, and a lot of them never came back.

I am not a 34-year-old manager trying to make my way in the game; I have been around a long time.

I love what I do; I want to continue doing it, I work hard at my job.
