I didn't have a lot of good film coming out of college. Also, my height didn't help me at all. I ran a decent 40, but no one would call it blazing speed.

I think you have to have a bit of an anger-management issue, to be honest with you. Usually, slot guys are a lot smaller and quicker, but at the same time, you have to go in there and block linebackers and safeties, and so you have to be aggressive.

I've just stopped worrying about what the game plan looks like, how many targets am I going to have in a game, all of the stuff that would distract me when having fun out there on the football field. It's allowed me to be less stressed and enjoy my teammates more and go out there with a loose mentality and have more fun.

Before I became a leader, I thought success was all about building myself up. But then, once I became a leader, I realized that success is about building others up.

I had been released by Southampton and was back playing Sunday League football when I signed for Bournemouth. I grew to love the club.

What the canons of beauty transmit is an idea of taking care of yourself. Eating well, living healthily, doing sports. It's a way to highlight the natural beauty in each of us. The natural body that all of us are born with.

Football is just one part of me. It's not the be-all, end all.

My confidence is in myself and how I run a football club and I've been doing that for many, many years now.
