Competition is normal at a big club, but I've never been worried about it.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Every time you go for more competition, some people don't like it, but that's the way it is.
Having no competition is a bad thing. Competition makes you try to improve yourself all the time.
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.
As far as the anxiety, I have no idea about it. I don't feel like I have any nervousness out there. I'm just a guy who really cares about being competitive and that's the bottom line.
I've never believed in competition. Everyone's here to do their own thing and become successful in that respect.
The whole competition thing disturbs me. Not that I wasn't a part of it when I first started.
Competition, I think, is always a good thing.
And I've always - the competition is one aspect of the job, but I think if you're too busy worrying about the competition, you don't focus enough on what you're doing.
It's not really about the competition. Your biggest challenge in a race is yourself. You're often racing against time. You're frequently running everything through your mind. You're always competing against preconceived ideas. It's not really the person next to you that you worry about.
I get nervous for any competition. I also get really competitive.
