It's every manager's dream, I suppose, to build a team by coaching young players of 15 to 17. That's why I started a youth scheme.

I'm a manager's player, in a way, because he can use me in a lot of different ways, and I'm willing to do that.

That's the big thing for youngsters. When you go, you don't want a manager that's not going to have any trust in young players.

Teams buy players and change managers if they feel they need change at the club.

I can see that I can be a role model.

I could never be a manager. All I have is natural ability.

You can have great players, but if they don't want to be coached, what are you going to do?

I've shown people what I can do and want to establish myself as a Premier League player.

I might be too emotional to be a manager. You love your players, don't you? And I'm not sure I could leave them out. I know how it feels.

I think sometimes managers like to buy players because they're more experienced from abroad or when they've got players under their nose that will give everything to the club they've been brought up with.
