“I feel I’ve got my form back now and I’m back to my old self. Obviously form is going to be up and down. When you’re in a bad patch you’ve just got to fight through it, listen to the manager and the coaches, work hard on the training pitch and give 110 per cent. I’ve done that and I feel really sharp.
I always like to make an impact – goal and assists or work-rate and helping the team. I thoroughly enjoy doing that.
Since I was young I’ve always been fit and like to stay sharp and be a box-to-box player. For me to play in that No 10 role you have to run, attack and defend.
If you constantly do that for 90 minutes, of course you’re going to get tired, but if you can do it consistently it helps the team.”
