If you were in a game of football always think you need maybe eight to win the game. Three can on an off day or semi off day but you always hard.

The best have the courage and I say this all the time. The courage to take the ball all the time, the courage to make sure that they are not going to be intimidated by their opponents, and the courage to express themselves at all times and I think that all the great players have got that.
