Once I remember shouting, 'Mum, can I get a pound for an ice cream?' and she said, 'I haven't got a pound, Kyle.' People take so much for granted, but I will never forget that.

I want to improve as a player, but it's all about the team.
I'll always be thankful to Villa for giving me the chance to play first-team football regularly.
It's always hard to sleep after a night game.
I was unfortunate at Tottenham.
I gambled when I left QPR to go to Aston Villa half-way through the season when we were winning every Championship game, and that paid off. You just get a sense inside you, and you have to go.
For us, as players, I am concentrating on the game rather than worrying about the fans, but obviously, you do want the atmosphere - when you do go to certain grounds, it is difficult to play there when you have got the atmosphere, the fans are right on their side.
I don't want to score; as long as I set people up and then they get the goals, that's all I'm bothered about.
I just want to learn and try to be the best player I can be.
I'm not looking into the future. I take every game as it comes, and as long as I am on the pitch and playing football, that is what keeps me happy.
I don't go throwing money about - if I did, I think my mum and dad would be on my back because that's not the way I've been brought up.
It's a big part of my game, attacking.
If you're lucky enough to get into a Premier League or Championship team straight away, well done to you, but I feel really grateful for the experience that I had at the lower end.
Sometimes you need to come out of your comfort zone a little bit.
It's better to play football with a smile on your face.
Working under Pep Guardiola, a chance like that doesn't come along too often. That's no disrespect to Mauricio Pochettino, but the people that Pep has worked with grow as players.
The Manchester City fans have their opinion on the Champions League. It is down to us, as players, to create the atmosphere in there and help the fans.
I'm all about assists; I'm not really greedy.
I like to think I'm a grown-up, but it's just nice you can have a civil conversation with your boss, you're both on the same page, and you've had a text, not about football, just about golf.
You probably learn more on the bench.
I'm going to repay my mum so much because she has kept my feet on the ground.
It's always nice to see familiar faces.
You have to remember that professional football is a job, too, and some people have to get results on the pitch to pay to live.
I am not going to sit here and disrespect Tottenham one bit because what they have done for me over the years is fantastic, and I am more than grateful. The way they have made the stepping stones in the right direction over the years I have been there is crazy.
It's an enjoyable sport; we all love to play the game, and fans love to support it.
Spurs will always have a place in my heart. They gave me a chance to play Premier League football, and I'll be forever indebted to them.
Every game is important.
I watched Pablo Zabaleta countless times on YouTube and clips, because I think his timing of runs into the box is fantastic.
When I'm out and about or walking my dogs, United fans are coming up to me saying, 'We'd rather City win the league than Liverpool.' It's strange to hear, but I can assure you the United players aren't going to leave a red carpet and say, 'Go on, City, score past us.'
It was disappointing to be left out of the Premier League line-up, but it was a reality check to sit back and look on the bench.
