If you're going to score, you're going to score.

When you're playing against a European side, you want to show that we can play too. You want to prove MLS is a good league when you're playing against those teams.

Every striker wants his midfielders to do well. If they play well, more than likely, I'll play well.

Every striker from England I know is the same; they're greedy and they want to get goals.

I think growing up in England strikers are hungry to just get goals. We have a mean streak in us. We like to get goals.

I say this every time I get interviewed, I just try to get my shots on target. If they go in, they go in.

I have relatives in New York.

As long as I'm playing well, I'm happy, and happy playing anywhere.

I put a lot of work into what I do.

Of course, I won't lie - I like to break records.

When I'm out with Shaun people will come up to him for five minutes, sometimes longer, and as they're leaving they'll say: 'Oh, you must be, erm, Bradley.' I don't mind at all.

When we were younger we were always at it and, as much as I hate to admit it, Shaun would always win.

It never surprises me how good Shaun is. Even the coaches are surprised by the things he does and I can understand why. He can strike the ball so hard, yet his legs are only about 12 inches long. But I've been watching him do things like that ever since we were kids. I know what he's capable of.

I'm the type of guy who gets on the end of things. I need to work on my heading and sometimes my concentration is poor but you need someone to finish off moves.

My dad tells me to ignore any expectation.

I remember at Man City when you saw people like Andy Cole walk through the door, you start thinking: 'We can get into Europe.'

It gives you confidence when you see new players coming in, it makes you think something is happening at the club.

In England, your manager is like a boss.

I always wanted to score goals, but sometimes I've scored and been terrible and other times I felt I played well and didn't score. I looked at the statsheet the season where I scored 27 goals and I had one assist and was frustrated.

I always liked fashion. I like to dress up on days off - the weekend and go out - I have a friend that worked in a hat shop in Soho, and he came to me and asked me to design a logo and a hat. I did and I showed it to him and he loved it.

I like to get in the box and finish.

I'm not too complicated. I don't think I'm great on the eye. I work hard. I try to outwork defenders, and that's it.

I feel like I'm quick enough, and on my day, I can be dangerous in the box.
