A biography for Shaun Wright-Phillipshasn’t been written yet.
“I think my best spell in terms of personal performance was in 2004 - but the best team was under Mark Hughes with Elano.”
“Sometimes people don't realise just how hard it is to play with 10 men in the Premier League.”
“I would love to retire a City player and I have my fingers crossed it is something that can still happen. When I did leave in 2005, I broke down crying on the way to sign for Chelsea, but back then, we needed the money my sale brought in.”
“I'm not one to give up fighting.”
“Some people handle situations differently - some people have a reaction, some people let it go over their head.”
“I like playing on the right because it favours me as it is my natural side.”
“You can always get better and always improve so that's what I do.”
“Being out of a team changes you as a person. You don't realise it but, away from the game, you can be snappy with your family or friends if you're not playing. It hurts not to be involved, but I guess you have to accept it. It's part and parcel of being at a big club.”
“I saw U.A.E. play at the London Olympics for the first time and I was really impressed with how they played against the likes of Great Britain and Uruguay.”
“It's not so much frustrating, it's just that if you don't know when you are going to play, how do you focus on a game? That's part of football, though, and if you are going to be at a big club you have to deal with it.”
“If I am on the pitch then I am happy.”
“In any footballer's head there comes a point where he recognises that he needs to be playing more games.”
“If its proven that there's racial abuse, the team's fans where there's abuse should quit the game as a loss and the result should go to the winner basically.”
“Everyone knows what a great player, as well as a person, David Beckham is. I am just hoping that I can learn from him. I know if I want to go far in my football career I have to do as well as him.”
“I first came up under Joe Royle and when Keegan took over it was even better for me because I felt his style added more to my game.”
“City is a very family-oriented club. Chelsea is in the centre of London, there is a different crowd following them, maybe more business people go to watch them.”
“I never try to prove anybody wrong. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.”
“Representing your country is a highlight in everybody's career.”
“It's always going to have meaning if you can help your brother achieve his targets.”
“I've never been able to touch my toes. Seriously, never.”
