"Exclusive Interview with Barts Hospital Defender, Ricki Albert"

Reporter: Ricki, thank you for taking the time to sit down with us. Let's start by talking about your current form this season. How do you feel you have been performing on the pitch?

Ricki: Well, I think my recent form has been average. I've been putting in the work and trying my best to meet the expectations of the club, but there's always room for improvement.

Reporter: Your practice ethics have been described as not the hardest worker, but also not the worst. How do you balance putting in the work with enjoying yourself?

Ricki: It's all about finding the right balance. I know that I need to take care of my body in order to have a long, healthy career as a footballer. But at the same time, I don't want to miss out on having fun and enjoying life.

Reporter: Your favorite club to play against is AVL. What is it about playing against them that you enjoy?

Ricki: I think it's the challenge of facing a strong opponent that brings out the best in me. I always look forward to testing myself against their attacking style of play.

Reporter: Finally, can you share with us a random interesting fact about your life outside of football?

Ricki: Well, not many people know this, but I actually have a black belt in karate. It's something I've been practicing for years and it helps me both on and off the pitch.

Reporter: That's impressive! Thank you for sharing that with us, Ricki. We wish you the best of luck for the rest of the season with Barts Hospital.

Ricki: Thank you, it's been a pleasure.
