00:00When did you learn English, Andy?
00:02Me?
00:03Yeah.
00:04I haven't spoken in English since I was in Belgium.
00:07I had a teacher maybe seven months,
00:10and then I moved to Rijeka, Croatia,
00:13and then I moved to Mexico,
00:14and then I had a Spanish teacher, you know.
00:16Yeah, yeah.
00:17But now I found a new teacher here to speak English
00:19because I really wanted, you know,
00:21to learn the language really good, you know.
00:24I'm still struggling to understand and speak.
00:26But you found it easy picking it straight back up?
00:28Yeah, yeah, yeah.
00:29I think that I improved a lot since my arrival here, you know,
00:34these two months because I was writing down,
00:36I write down all the words and all I learned.
00:38Yeah.
00:39That's helpful, you know.
00:41How are you finding the country generally?
00:43Yeah, it's good.
00:44Maybe the weather too, but I'm not used to it
00:47because the last three years in Mexico was playing all the sun, you know,
00:50but it's good.
00:51I really like doing here, you know.
00:53What was playing in Mexico like?
00:54It's quite known for being a bit crazy.
00:56Well, that was a really hard decision, you know,
00:59and I lived in the most dangerous city in the world.
01:02Like training home in training.
01:05Which is?
01:06Juarez.
01:07Juarez like on the border with the United States.
01:11I think in 2009, that was like the most dangerous city in the world.
01:17And there are people killing each other every day, you know.
01:20You can hurt that, but you know, I haven't seen anything, you know.
01:23But...
01:24You were okay while you were there.
01:25Yeah, yeah.
01:26I was okay.
01:27I was just house training.
01:28Yeah.
01:29And I was alone because my wife was pregnant, you know.
01:33And they were with me, with my daughter, little daughter, because she was pregnant.
01:38Like one month and she just said, I want to go home.
01:42I cannot...
01:43She felt depressed, you know.
01:45Yeah.
01:46And then I was alone.
01:47So imagine being alone.
01:48Yeah.
01:49Did you...
01:50It was a good experience, but...
01:52I would not do it again as well.
01:55No matter how much money they can offer.
01:58Did you ever come close to signing for another English club in your career?
02:02Or was this the...
02:03No.
02:04It was the first time.
02:05But ever since you went to Leicester, you thought I'd love to...
02:07Yeah, yeah.
02:08But I just trained with them, you know, like for seven days.
02:11It was not like a trial, just I trained with them.
02:14Yeah, because you cannot stay like, you know, turn 18.
02:16Yeah, yeah.
02:17But how are you finding the level in the league?
02:19Yeah, it's good level, you know.
02:20Here you have more space, but it's more demanding physically, you know.
02:23It's not like in Spain, they have more...
02:25They play more with the ball, you know.
02:27The manager has been good with you and the players and you just feel...
02:30Yeah, everyone really has been really kind to me since the...
02:33Since my arrival.
02:34So really happy with them, with everything, you know.
