We need to give our goalkeepers the same level of training that we've given to our outfield players.

I don't like to make comparisons between former managers because they all bring a unique style.

Most of my football education was under Hope Powell, and were some of her training sessions boring? Yes. But were they necessary? Yes. We fully understood what we needed to do as a defensive unit.

When I played for Boston Breakers in my early twenties, I really stepped up my training, which meant running drills until you're sick.

My body shape has transformed as sports science research has developed. It used to be thought that footballers needed to be big and do lots of weights and little cardio.

If a player wants to be the best, then they also need to give themselves a talking-to. You need to look inwards.
