I'm a part of a team, and I'm no better or any worse than any single player on this team. That's the approach I've always had and will continue to have. It's not about me. It has never been all about me. If it had, this would have been a really lonely journey.
You can't just beat a team, you have to leave a lasting impression in their minds so they never want to see you again.
Goals have never defined me as a player. What has defined me is my impact on the team. If that means passing or playing defense to win, I'll do it.
Soccer isn't very social. Plus, if you don't like someone on the other team, you can do something about it.
