on the MVP…

I’m just enjoying it. I have enjoyed every second of the tour, on the pitch and off the pitch. The main thing is gaining fitness and winning the games obviously. I’m buzzing we got two wins in America, now it is back to the UK.

on getting fit..

We have done a lot of fitness and strength work out here, so we are going back stronger - especially in this heat. The main thing is gaining fitness and I enjoyed it.

on Chivas…

They were a good team. Technically and physically they were really good. You can’t come to these places and underestimate these teams. The football is really good; it was a tough test.

on the chemistry….

I think the lads are clicking on the pitch and off the pitch. I’m buzzing for Rob and Chambo, they scored good goals. There were a lot of positives from this game.

on summarising the tour…

Sensational.
