Sir Clive On how life has changed since lifting the World Cup: "Hasn't changed at all. I was very pleased [to be knighted] but it doesn't make any difference to your life ... We're very pleased to have won the World Cup but it's history and this is what we do for a living. I'd be horrified if anyone thought I'd changed."

Sir Clive: "My only goal when I took over was for England to be the best team in the World".

Sir Clive: "I was going nuts. We kept putting ourselves in trouble, making error after error. But who cares what I thought? We have won the World Cup"
