I play football in training all the time with my male friends, who are also professionals. But playing together in competition? I just don't see it. We have the ability, we have the technique, we have the tactical understanding, but there are physical limitations. You can't get away from that.

I'm always a competitor. I'm not there just to have a good time. I want to play well and perform well.

Team competition is my priority.

During such a competition players are there for a long time as well as all the people around them. They need to train, to eat, to go out. There ought to be something in it for everyone. On that particular point, my experience has been a bonus.

You have to go out and find a way to compete every day. I know what I can do and what I can offer the team.

You just go out there and try to compete and try to make a play for your teammates.

As a competitor, you want to be out there in the fire with your teammates.

I've been in a competitive situation almost all my life. I've been having a competition with myself and trying to be the best I could be.

I think you sign up to win games, and compete, and go out there and lead a team no matter how you can do that.

I think it's an extremely important factor to have your team together. It goes back to having distractions. When you all stay together for a period of time you're not training people or feeling out different personalities.
