Steven Gerrard was someone I looked up to massively. I'd always try to copy him, right down to the boots he was wearing. It was his attitude on the pitch that stood out - you could really see how much he hated losing.

You have to focus on the future and know that you can succeed in life, and you have to keep working hard.

It's important you stay professional and keep working, and I'm thankful for everything that's happened to me.

That's the big thing for youngsters. When you go, you don't want a manager that's not going to have any trust in young players.
