3 Words to Describe You Charming, funny, warming.

If You Could Have 3 Things on The Island What Would They Be and Why? A few beers, a ball to kick around with, a time machine to travel back to 1990 and relieve the World Cup all over again.

Survivor Contestant You Are Most Like: I quite identify myself with Kyle of Qatar.

Reason for Being on SURVIVOR: I still love competition. I failed to win a World Cup for England. So I think I can try to win this game for them.

Why You Think You’ll “Survive” SURVIVOR: I think people outside England don't know me very well. Maybe in the football community, but not elsewhere. So I think I can be useful for my own cause.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: As I said, I'm not as recognizable outside of England and I have a mindset that has never changed even after I retired from Football.
