If Man United and Liverpool fans feel better by calling me a black monkey in my messages... feel free to carry on if it makes your day better.

The Ivory Coast had been begging for ages. The country and the fans love me already, and I haven't even done anything. I may not get the red carpet - it may not have the same Nike deals as when you play for England - but I'm going to be playing, I'm going to be loved, and that's all I want. Nothing else.

As for me not playing for England, I've got no regret at all.
