In England everyone puts a lot of pressure on you when you have cost a lot of money. ”

My fitness is good. I hope to improve it even further during training. ”

I would like to thank everyone who supported me to be fit for the Euros. I had some fitness problems before the tournament, but I am here now! ”

When I was a child, it was my dream to be a professional footballer. When I was 14 I visited Milan's San Siro stadium and remember thinking how unbelievable it was. From then onwards I vowed that one day I would be playing there - and I am very proud that I achieved this and also for everything else I have managed to achieve in football. ”

I had a hard time at Chelsea mainly because I was injured much of the time. Every time I recovered from one injury I seemed to get a new one and it set me back again. ”

We are playing at home, with full stadiums and passionate fans. It will be very special moment for me. ”

There is a great responsibility on the team to perform well, because our supporters and the whole of the country are expecting us to do just that. ”
