One of the main things I said in my job interview was that I want to develop female coaches.

I'm going to prove I can coach in the women's game and prove I can manage an England team to success.

I had a good football intelligence. I didn't need 10 games to get used to a position. I could go out and do a job.

From facing a manager for the past 16 years to suddenly being the one person everyone is looking at is a daunting prospect. It's something I want to be prepared for. If I get the opportunity, I don't want to let myself down.

I just loved the kind of people who play football. Definitely takes courage to play this game.

One thing about being a great ball handler is not looking at the basketball.

Sport doesn't know barriers, really. You are judged on your performance... how far you can jump, how fast you can run, how well you can hit a tennis ball.

I've been through a lot off the field. I think that kind of translates onto the field. Football serves for a lot of life lessons, and so it allows me to stay humble and continue to work.
