“He was always in the middle of the dressing room,” . “We also had Quinton Fortune and Patrice Evra, they were super funny.”
“Most of the jokes of Roy were when he was very aggressive and you think he’s very serious and he’s not. You have to be on your toes!”

“I see the same of him in his punditry. He wants to be involved, he wants to have a reaction from the players. He will poke you, he will not let you rest if you don’t have the right attitude.”
