You live for those pressure moments. Through an international career, you have ups and downs, but you always feel you are going to be tested in moments like that. It has taken me years to feel comfortable and to feel like I have good composure in those situations.
As soon as I knew I was leaving Chelsea, our first thought was to return to Germany.
This conducting thing happened. In 1983 I was sucked into this international career, which was a very scary experience.
Pep Guardiola, when he was at Bayern Munich, he was able to reply in German in his first press conference.
I have played a lot of games, had a good international career, and picked up a lot of caps, but it is not going to be complete without winning trophies, so that is my main goal.
It has been a great honour to play for the West Indies, to hold a bat and to spend 17 years in international cricket. That is something I am proud of.
Kate(Henshaw-Nuttal) was superb. The same for Stella(Damasus-Aboderin) and, of course, Jeta and Jumai(Joseph). They can work anywhere in the world. I think you can put Jeta and Stella on a plane and fly them to London or to Los Angeles to go and work.
Being an international actor, I always had to keep moving.
My life, my family and my friends are back in the U.K., so ideally I would love the kind of career that is split between London and New York.
I just get offered a lot more work in America than I do in Britain.
I've been lucky enough to build a career outside of America, where I got 18 years and over 60 films of experience.
I spent a lot of time in Japan. To me, I felt like my career was kind of marooned out there. I didn't realize the extent of the reach that New Japan had in America and around the world.
Casillas has an impressive track record at Real Madrid.
For every big American movie I've done where I was the supporting guy, I've gone back home to Canada to do supporting movies where I was the lead.
I'm in kind of a strange position - I have a strong Australian career and a strong British career. Then there's the American career. For every movie I do here, I do two somewhere else. I bounce back and forth between the three places.
I love Britain. I'm an Irish citizen, but I was born in Canada, and I'm a British comedian, really. My entire career has been over here.
I want to play in Europe, as the national team is important for me.
Money wasn't the motivating factor in calling time on my international career and focusing on T20 cricket. If I was here to make as much money as I can, I would be playing 10 to 12 tournaments a year.
I want to take a more international direction with my career.
When I left for Qatar, I knew, of course, that this could have an impact on my career as an international.
I love playing for my country. I see it as the biggest privilege of my career, so there's no way I'm going to volunteer to give that up. I want to go on for as long as I can. I've got 68 caps and I'd love to think I could get 100. I know there are some players who reach their 30s and announce their international retirement. I totally understand and respect their decisions. We are away a lot and for long spells. But although it's hard, we're doing one of the most privileged jobs in the world.
I am not taking for granted a call-up to the England squad or making any assumption about my future international career.
I have my Masters degree in international relations, banking job experience with Citibank, and I have also worked in developmental organisations.
My television and movie career has also taken me all over the world. I've had great times in the Far East, Russia, South America and Sweden - where I met my wife of 55 years, Maj.
I think that the path of my career can pass through the United States. I love the style of life here.
