I could give 48 penalties in every match if I wanted to. It is a question of sometimes choosing what is - in your own mind - of material importance and what isn't, what might be a crucial potential penalty and what might not be.

You can take 100 penalties in training, but when you go out on that pitch in front of all those people and the television cameras, it's completely different.

There are not many times when I get nervous, but I do a little bit with penalties.

Staying out of the penalty box will really help.

Always keep your composure. You can't score from the penalty box; and to win, you have to score.

If you make a mistake, your opponent can punish, and you end up losing the game.

I didn't take many penalties, but I never missed one.

There are no opportune times for a penalty, and this is not one of those times.

You want to play in every game, and you especially don't want to be in the penalty box for five minutes and give the other team a chance to get a power play, and you don't want to hurt anyone on the other team.
