Growing up, David Seaman was a massive role model for me. Peter Schmeichel and him were the ones I looked up to.

When you become a professional footballer, there's no written contract that says you have to strive to play first-team football.

I don't hate Guardiola. These kind of feelings don't suit with professional matters.
