I've never asked a player if they would sign my shoe.

I talk periodically with the producers at EA and I try to be as honest as possible because as great as EA does, you just don't want to hear good things. These people are really passionate about making games and making them as realistic as possible.
I think all players reach a point in their career where it's natural to lose some of that hunger, that desire, to sort of break out or be a star.
I genuinely want to do my best every day, and I genuinely want to enjoy life every day.
I miss driving to Goodison Park. I miss just the positive energy of the fans walking into the stadium and how much they care about that club and the team. And I miss the players a lot.
Life isn't perfect, of course, but we all know it's how you react to things that counts.
