Gary Lineker

I trust you.

You go out there.

You play how you know you can play.

And he did this rousing 30-second, 60-second speech.

And at the end of it, he went, just get out there and win.

And we all went, wow, goosebumps.

And we all stood up and he went...

but if anyone wants to see the permutations he turned over the flip chart board and he had it and he spent 45 minutes talking through them all absolutely true but anyway come the game we're playing in 40 degrees 42 degrees centigrade it was it's mental and things changed I made that you know that guessing on where the ball might go thing I told you about before Gary Stevens crossed it I was there three yards out Bosch 1-0 and then suddenly I'd scored a hat-trick in just a few minutes and life changed

Life changed in all sorts of different ways.

This was before the World Cup.

And then the World Cup was started.

And I had a chat with my agent, John.

And he said, right, how do we handle this?

I said, well, join the World Cup.

I said, I'm with England.

I said, I don't want to know anything.

I said, let's park it till after the World Cup.

This has got to be my focus.
