It's much easier to make jokes about sensitive issues if there is some dissent, some conflict.

I'd rather call myself a mischief-maker, an imp, rather than a satirist. Satirist sounds so self important. Plus no one is calling himself an imp right now. It makes me feel special.

I wish I had played team sports. I think every kid should. Teamwork builds character - teaches people about leadership and cooperation.

I don't think everyone should vote. If you have to be dragged into the polls, carried into the polls and smelling salts have to be used, you probably shouldn't be voting. However, we shouldn't be putting up barriers to voting that target certain groups.

In football, any team can still improve, in every sense.

I've played under some of the biggest and best managers and achieved almost everything in football. Of course it hurts when people question it, but I've come to the end of my career and can look back and say I've achieved everything with every club that I've played for.

I've got no interest in football. My brother's a footballer, too, and I was dragged to the freezing pitch every week as a child. I don't see much glamour in it.

I'm focused on football and my career. No one really has to doubt that. Outside, I do other things that make me happy.
