As a goalkeeper, Van der Sar can do everything. He is very good at coming off his line, and he is also effective as a libero - what they call in England a 'sweeper keeper.'

It was my dream to have an opportunity to become a professional player.

When I was in high school, I started learning English as my second foreign language, but my level of English at that time was very average.

I would like to be a manager, to organize everything in training, see if my philosophy could work, and give it to the team.

I have this ambition that when I become powerful and famous, I will host an event of boxing or kick-boxing, which the entire nation watches. That way, this sport will gain attention. People will realise that there is a lot of talent in India.

In a world as competitive as ours, the child who does not get a decent education is condemned to the fringes of society. I think all Australians agree that this is intolerable. So we must demand as much of our schools as we do of our sports teams - and ensure that they keep the Australian dream alive for every child.

Hopefully, now there are kids, both male and female, even senior players, who open themselves up now and are more open to going abroad and playing their football. I've learnt so much, and they can, too.

You would never see me driving around in a sports car. I feel like you're so low and squish-able by transport trucks.
