Jill Roord

"Now I’m older and a more important player. And while that brings pressure with it, I like it too."

"I do play better when I have a sense of freedom on the pitch. Any time I’ve got that, I’m happy."

"I feel that everyone has their own thing about them that makes them unique."

"A lot of people set targets and that works for them but for me I just live in the moment."

"Pressure! No, I’m pretty chilled. I go game by game, week to week rather than setting goals."

"We’re comfortable, we have fun and we’re successful."

"My focus is always on that particular game and that moment. I try not to think beyond that."

"I’m focused on playing well rather than searching for fame or anything like that."

"It is strange but I’m proud to be considered a role model. It’s almost weird to hear those words but they mean a lot."

"I love football so much but it’s also important for me to switch off in order to perform well. I need to switch off after training so that I am mentally fresh for the next session."

"I don’t like to tell myself “you need to score ten times”."

"I basically live in the moment, game by game."
