Jermain Defoe Football Quotations

I feel 21. I've looked after myself and take my football seriously.

There is always going to be competition. When you play for a top club, you're going to attract top players. It's part and parcel of football.

It doesn't matter who you are, football's a business. At some stage you're going to have to leave a football club; that's just normal.

When you are young, nothing is more important than football, but as you get older, you get married, have kids and lose people. Then you realise your family is more important. This comes with age.

For me, there's nothing that beats playing. When I'm not playing, I'll watch games on the television, watch stuff on You Tube, everything. I just live for football, love watching great players.

I don't feel like I'm getting older. I think it's the way I've looked after myself. I take my football seriously. I love scoring goals and I get a good feeling from it, so I'll do whatever it takes to be fit and feel good in games.

The best thing about football is that the rules are so simple. Anyone can play anywhere.
