If I'm played out of position, I'll always give 100%, but everyone knows I would rather play down the middle.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I do think the position I play is a powerful position.
If I'm playing higher up the pitch, it's important I don't get carried away and start dropping too deep and I stay in my position.
You just don't want to get pigeon-holed into one position. That's why even though I start out at center, I may play small forward, if I get a rebound and you're not there I can bring the ball up.
I like it when I am in the middle; I am closer to the ball. The manager wants me to pass, to make assists, create chances, and I do more because I think the position is more central, and I don't ask all the time for the ball at my feet.
Every time I step out on that field, I'm 100 percent. My teammates know that. They know what I'm out there dealing with. I know what I'm out there dealing with. But when it comes to my mindset, I'm 100 percent.
Center is a very tough position to play.
I play on the left hand side, and I try to do the best I can.
Of course I am happy to play in any of the attacking roles, but for me, where I can score the most goals is down the middle.
I think I play center field better than I do anywhere else. I have enough speed and enough reaction to know where the ball goes off the bat.
With the money I'm making, I should be playing two positions.
