Jack Rodwell

I just want to do the best I can, which means playing for the England full side one day and carry on playing well for Everton.

It's brilliant to be compared with such a player as Rio Ferdinand.

I like centre-half, but I can play centre-mid as well.

I'm just going to give my all every game, be a good box-to-box midfielder, hopefully score some goals, and I will always give it 100 per cent.

If you are good enough, you should play.

I am happy at Everton, and I can't do anything else other than concentrate on my own game.

Throughout their career, the likes of Xavi and Andres Iniesta have all been taught to a play a certain way. English players have been taught a different way, just like Brazil have been taught a different way.

My ambitions are just to keep working hard and, when I do get on, to make an impression.

Midfield, defence - I have even played out wide for Everton, so I will do a job anywhere and give 100 percent.

Any player at City is prepared to play anywhere, and I'm no different.

I never really supported anyone when I was younger, but I'm an Evertonian now.

I started out playing football in the park with my dad. My dad was a bit of a ball player, but he couldn't really be bothered playing.

David Moyes works you really hard, but he's also a fair manager as well.

If Manchester United come knocking, you can't turn that down.

Every time I step on to the pitch, I give my all.

As a kid, I always dreamed of making my senior debut.

The transfer deadline can be a distraction if you allow it to be.

I changed my car completely - I was in a sports car and changed to a Jeep, which is more stable for the back and doesn't put too much stress on it.

I was at Everton from the age seven. Being there 14 years meant any move was going to be big.

I was not guaranteed a starting place at Everton. I had a lot of injuries. Darron Gibson and Marouane Fellaini were in form, so it was a push for me to get in that side.
