00:03Goes without saying really, don't it? Essentials.
00:10First item is iPad. When you're traveling around as much as I am, it's really important to have
00:18a good series or a good few films downloaded for the plane. It's important that, you know,
00:22I'm kept occupied otherwise I'll go nuts. I always end up going back to watch The Godfather
00:27films. I think one and two are my two favorite films of all time. I think if I met Denzel
00:31Washington
00:31I'd be pretty starstruck. He's a legend isn't he and he's got an aura that can obviously fill a room
00:36so yeah, I'd probably go with him. Next one is Sky Joe. It's a little bit beat up because I
00:44had this
00:45one at the World Cup. It's a card game that we play in my family or at England, my teammates.
00:50Yeah,
00:51we had a great time at the World Cup playing this and we ended up taking it really seriously and
00:54there was some fallouts as well so that's always makes it more fun. Morgan Rodgers was like really
01:00good in the end. I don't think he fully understood the strategy but ended up always winning. He was
01:05always chirpy about that to be fair. Yeah, Hendo always lost as you can imagine. My favorite goal
01:10that I scored at the World Cup would have been I think for like quality maybe the the goal against
01:15France in the third and fourth place game but for importance probably the second goal against Mexico
01:20the kind of cut back and yeah, just the tapping really but it was so important because obviously
01:25it gave us a 2-0 lead in a really difficult game. If I could play with any of my
01:29football idols it would be
01:31Zidane, David Beckham, Steven Gerrard and maybe Rooney and then I'll stick myself in and we'd have a good
01:39little fiber side tin. Next item is my body care kit, my deodorant and my body spray. Obviously
01:51these are essential when I'm on the road and when I'm you know traveling as much as you are you're
01:56always meeting new people you want to make sure you're staying fresh yeah it's uh it's something that
02:01always stays with me. I normally go like there so that's pretty normal no?
02:10Yeah another essential would be my my hair sponge you know just to to make sure my hair is always
02:16always sharp and you know staying in the right place. I've seen the like the look-alike competitions
02:20and I thought it was banter at first thought it was like an AI thing and then yeah it turned
02:24out to be
02:24to be real so I didn't see you win it but um yeah fair play to him I don't know
02:29if it's a good thing
02:29bad thing but yeah well done I suppose. This is more just kind of essentials. My passport um a bit
02:38kind of battered it's taken I've never hit these last couple of years with all the traveling around
02:43I've been doing Germany to Madrid to England uh to play for the national team and then all over in
02:48Europe when we've got the the Champions League games and stuff so it's something I just keep on
02:52me all the time now just in case and I forgot it once and it always sticks in my head
02:56that my mom had
02:57come and bring it to the airport and that was very embarrassing. I've never lost it permanently
03:01no but like I said I've forgotten it a fair few times like 20 minutes after we've left to go
03:06to
03:06the airport and it's it's always a bad feeling to know that you've kind of ruined everyone else's trip.
03:13This is a little Lego Jude Building. So this was a gift from someone very close to me and my
03:22dad's
03:22got one as well he was always a massive fan of Lego that's why the person got it for me
03:26he was always
03:27building like the Millennium Falcon and all that stuff and obviously now I've got a little figurine
03:30I thought it'd be a good a good gift for them so um yeah I've got one my dad's got
03:35one obviously
03:35kept it with me for a while now so and it's brought me good luck so yeah keep it around.
03:41Okay next one is these are two important things for me it's a turmeric shot and the hydration
03:49um tabs they're really important for me to to prepare for a game and to to maintain a kind
03:55of healthy and good routine obviously playing abroad in Spain when it's really hot you lose so
04:00many salts through sweating so it's really important that I've always got something to make sure that
04:04I'm topping up on that. This is like the only thing that's kind of food or drink related that I
04:09really travel with to be fair there's not really this snack that I like to to bring now.
04:14What do you call a bread roll? Oh um bap bap yeah like bacon bap apple butter yeah.
04:21I've heard sometimes people in your own say a badge. A badge?
04:27No way that can't be right. Next item would be my phone really important for me to stay connected to
04:38everyone um my mom my dad my brother friends obviously when you're traveling as well even to
04:44just stay on top of schedules and things like that this is probably the unfortunately it's
04:48probably the thing that I use the most out of my bags it is important. The round with your group
04:52chat
04:52is the loudest future when we've got some plans for like a team dinner and we're trying to organize
04:56what time and what restaurant it's always funny to get everyone's input and yeah it's carnage trying
05:01to prepare it really because everyone's got different ideas of what they want to what they want to
05:05eat and what time for some people that got kids so that's too late for me I'm just kind of
05:09easy but
05:10it's it's funny to see them go back and forth for sure.
05:19Goes without saying really don't it. Essentials always need to make sure you have an extra pair
05:24because you never know what can happen so obviously I've got my car and clients with me all the time.
05:29Less said the better I think really. Yeah on we go.
05:34It could be an accident for someone else as well you know what I mean so who knows.
05:40Wallet obviously very important again I'm pretty similar with my wallet as I am with my passport
05:46about making sure that I've always got it on me especially if we're traveling away for a few days and
05:50I don't have it with me and something ends up happening I'd feel really bad if someone had to
05:55pick up a bill or something like that and I was just like the wallet's at home.
05:58I have a provisional license if you want to see it there's my provisional driving license I don't
06:04have an actual driving license no I was young there so 17 or something and I probably thought
06:10I was going to pass in the next kind of couple months after that or so but then I went
06:14to Germany
06:14and um yeah excuses. I did try in Germany but I couldn't read the road signs I did a practical
06:22lesson in Spain that didn't go well at all. Passenger princess for life why not you know what I mean.
06:28The last thing in my bag and obviously the most important I have like a multi-chord charger and
06:34whenever I whip this out everyone's always laughing but when they need a charger I'm the first person
06:40they come to. I think this one's got the charger at the moment in my ipad, iphone and my razer.
06:47Easy on
06:47the road to have it something that's all in one instead of having all your different cables. I
06:53don't really have a pre-match song. I have a little pre-match playlist though that's like Jay-Z, 50
06:58Cent,
06:59Biggie on there. All songs that are more focused on like getting me a bit more hyped up and excited.
07:05I always flip between genres and like different eras of music. I really like Elvis, it's real weird
07:11like someone of my age probably shouldn't but it's just got so many different kind of songs for how you're
07:15feeling and some slower ones and some more upbeat ones. If I feel like I'm coming into a stadium a
07:20little bit too pumped already then I probably feel like something a bit slower. I might do some Adele
07:25just to bring me back down a bit. It's a real privilege to be on a cover of Vogue. Obviously
07:30it's
07:30something that that's a huge honour and I'm really grateful that the team and everyone involved have
07:36allowed me to have this opportunity. They've all made me feel really at home and really comfortable
07:40and I've really enjoyed the day. I think my bag says about me that I'm clean in case of emergencies.
07:47Yeah, I think I'm well prepared to travel more so than anything. I'm busy and that yeah I'm trying
07:53to look after myself as best as possible. Thank you so much for watching.
