00:00He's an outstanding player. We're very, very fortunate to have him.
00:04At any time, he can score a goal and make that difference.
00:07He's got every quality under the sun.
00:09He shows to all of us how good a player he actually is,
00:11every day, as a captain and as a leader.
00:14I love this game, I love representing England more than anything,
00:17and I don't want it to end any time soon.
00:30This is one that I'm extremely proud of.
00:37I think it shows great consistency over a long period of time.
00:41I think we need to look at some of the other players who have achieved it,
00:45some of our greatest ever players.
00:47What a guy he is, what a professional he is,
01:01and just seeing the way he is day-to-day, he's a real massive role model.
01:06He's an inspiration for all the young players that are coming up.
01:09We'll do our best to make certain that we don't build him up to knock him down,
01:16but we build him up to be an important part of our future.
01:30What can be better than to make your debut and score a goal?
01:36They've got some great goalscorers in the past, Wayne Rooney,
01:38and you could go back to Jimmy Greaves and other players.
01:40So if he'll go down in history, regardless of whether anybody breaks his record or not,
01:43as one of England's finest centre-forwards.
01:46I feel both physically and mentally at a peak in my career,
01:50and I think just watching other players, like watching Ronaldo score his 901st goal,
01:55seeing him compete at 38 or 39 years old just inspires me to play for as long as possible.
02:02Who knows how many caps I can get or how many goals I can get,
02:05but I'm hungry for more and I'm determined to keep pushing the boundaries.
02:16I'm hungry for more and I'm determined to keep pushing the boundaries.
