I've had one very bad ankle injury but otherwise I've been incredibly lucky with my fitness. I've worked hard at it and I've always been fit even compared to other players. That sustains you through various parts of your career, but I am 36. Graeme Le Saux anklebadcareer share on social

Training is such a vital part of preparation for a game, you really do train to play. It tops up your ability, like sharpening a carving knife.

My wife Mariana is a good photographer too and, like me, she just picks up a camera and takes a picture when she sees something, rather than looking too deeply into it. Graeme Le Saux cameradeeplygood Change image and share on social
