“You should never give up.”

“You live in a place like Leeds and understand what football actually means to people. It goes even deeper than you think.”

“I want to represent my country for as long as I can, but I know football can change in the blink of an eye.”

“You had to be focused in the Championship as well, but in the Premier League, it's more mentally challenging. You have to be focused all the time or you'll get punished.”

“You want to test yourself at the highest level and if I get that opportunity at Leeds then it is something I will grab with both hands.”

“As a young boy you dream of playing in the Premier League.”

“I think that's the same no matter what level you're playing at, whether it's club football or international, you have got to win games and anything you get away is a bonus.”

“There are lot of people who want to see us fail. It spurs us on... As players we have to feed off that and try and get the job done.”

“It's an honour to play for a club like Leeds.”

“Growing up there was more of a Leeds following in my home town than even Man United or Liverpool.”

“I never ever thought I would have a song dedicated to me.”

“It's an honour to play for Northern Ireland and scoring makes the experience extra special.”

“It was very hard training just once a week when my ultimate ambition was to play professionally.”

“That's why we play, to entertain.”

“It would be a dream come true for me to play against Liverpool at Anfield.”

“Going from winning the Young Player of the Year and Player of the Year while I was with Crusaders to winning the International Personality of the Year award means a lot to me.”

“As players we just want to be successful and play in major tournaments.”

“You always get that from the Northern Ireland fans, whether it's at Windsor Park or away from home they always make a great noise.”

“The fans are massive in terms of what we do. They're the 12th man at times, they drag us through games.”

“Grassroots football is so important.”
