- How do you celebrate birthdays at training camps?
- The team congratulates which is nice. Mostly I have birthdays at training camps. Of course I wish my wife, kid and parents were here, but that’s what our profession is like. Birthday is no obstacle for training process.
- You’re the oldest player of the team…
- Age is just a figure, I don’t feel I’m 33. We have so many youngsters in the team, so I guess I try to be younger too (laughing).
- Do you feel the contrast between Turkey and UAE?
- The weather is a bit different here and the field is softer. In UAE it was dry. Besides it was hot there, especially before midday.
- You have the first friendly tomorrow. Will it be tough to play after several days off?
- I don’t think so. We had a good session yesterday before the departure. I don’t think there will be any problems.
