voila sa réponse concernant son état physique et ses blessures
The fans will be desperate to know how your fitness is because you've obviously had a torrid time with injuries in the past few years...
I'd like to think that everyone was quite surprised at how (good) my medical was. I knew I would pass my medical, I've obviously passed them before. My fitness is fine. A lot is made of it and probably a lot will come out in the coming months and years but I certainly don't feel like I'm injury prone. I've had a lot of injuries since I was at Newcastle - but anybody would get injured if someone jumped on their foot. I can name loads of players, and probably half a dozen here, who've broken a metatarsal. That almost set me on my way to having a couple of injuries subsequently because I didn't get that first one right. I'm 29, I've played off the top of my head 500-plus games at the highest level. For me to play that many games, I think everyone would agree you can't be on the treatment table all the time. But it is my plan to improve on my injury record. I know the medical staff here are really highly thought of so hopefully I can work with them and make sure I'm available for every game.
