About the World Cup Prospects

I look forward to us getting to the World Cup, and I look forward to going there and doing well. It might not happen, and if it doesn't, it won't change me.

On Welsh Identity

I grew up partly in England. I don't hate the English at all, but I love being Welsh and I love who we are.

I think this suits me very well. I always felt like I was different. I've grown up in England since I was 15, but I've always felt like I wasn't one of you. I have a different identity. I belong to a different crowd. I've always loved this. That's red, that's Welsh identity. So I never want to be like others. I never considered myself the same as anyone else. It's not about good or bad.

I always make sure people know where I'm coming from. I belong to a people who really care about each other, we have our own identity, our own language, and sometimes we see things a little differently. I enjoy being this person.
