My mum and dad ran a family cafe in Sligo for 35 years and worked long hours. We grew up in a very hard-working family and had a lovely atmosphere, as we lived above the restaurant.

I can’t put everyone in the same bracket, but many haven’t got over the old Lacazette and the perception that I was a bit of a lazy striker who didn’t really work hard for the team. At least, I thought I was working hard, but I didn’t really know how to help my team-mates.
484
I struggled many times when maybe it didn’t look like I was struggling, and I had to work hard every day.
485
