I want London to be a competitive, dynamic place to come to work.

I'm confident of what I have to achieve in the buildup to London 2012.

The objective is to do things well in London.

London is really nice, and I'm really happy here, but, of course, I've moved here to play football and not just to be in the city.

London is a very energising place to be.

One of London's massive strengths is its sporting prowess, its great football teams.

London is like my second home. I've still got friends there from school and from when I first started in the modelling business - people such as Karen Elson, Jasmine Guinness, Jade Parfitt.

I have found a flat on Merseyside and am settling down here. If I can keep playing and get back to full match fitness, I know I have a lot to offer still.
