Continuing our Q&A feature using the year of the Club’s formation as inspiration, where we ask our players to choose 18 lifestyle questions from a selection of 82. Today, goalkeeper Michel Vorm shares his answers with us...

1 – When are you at your happiest?

Michel: “When I’m around my family.”

2 – What keeps you going through the bad times?

Michel: “Once again, that’s my family.”

3 – What was your initiation song?

Michel: “I just sung the Dutch national anthem! I guess that’s not really a song, as such.”

4 – Do you prefer a beach break or a city break?

Michel: “Beach, for sure. I love Mykonos, Greece.”

5 – What is the best advice you could give to a young player?

Michel: “First and foremost, work hard. Enjoy it and always believe in yourself. Everyone has ups and downs, especially goalkeepers, but keep believing in yourself. If you work hard, I believe there is always something there in life for everyone.”

6 – What is the most important lesson life has taught you?

Michel: “I always say there is more in life than football. Okay, I play football, but there are more important things too, not least the people around you who really matter.”
