Rejection is a tricky thing when you're a kid.
When I was eight years old I was
released by Arsenal.
My dad was the one who told me.
I wasn't old enough to fully understand
the feeling of rejection and dad didn't
show any signs of disappointment. He just
put his arm around me and said we go
again and work even harder. Let's see
where it takes us and so we did.
Then he told me Tottenham wanted me. We took
the opportunity and put in the hard work.
I was desperate to make the first team
but I had to be patient and I had to
keep believing in myself. I kept thinking
to myself before every game. I'm going to
do it. I'm going to work as hard as
possible, but then I was sent out on loan.
It definitely wasn't easy.
I had to work hard through some really
tough times. There was self-doubt but I
didn't want anyone feeling sorry for me.
I kept repeating to myself. we go again
and work even harder. I was determined to
prove that I was good enough.
I knew my chance was going to come.

So wherever you are, whatever your
struggles, keep working, keep going
and most importantly, always believe in
yourself because the more I believed in
myself along with the support of others
the more real everything became.
