The former footballer confessed that his eldest daughter ‘turns into a horror’ when she wants to win, especially when it comes to horse dressage contests.
The MailOnline reports he said: “Match day or if it’s a big competition, going into that ring, she turns into a horror. It’s like that’s it – you get your game face on and you can’t control it.”
Michael went on to say that he’s the same, explaining that he ‘didn’t let anyone talk to him’ before a match.
He then added: “She’s the same, she’s horrible. Stay out of her way when a big competition’s coming round.
“That’s how much it means to you. Start focusing on the job in hand.”
Michael isn’t the only sportsman of the family, as his daughter Gemma is a professional sportswoman herself.
The star competes with Team GB as a horse dressage rider.
