I think everyone will agree that it doesn't matter how we get to an international tournament. We are going to do whatever it takes.
Quote by -John McGinn
Two-footed players always get a lot more recognition, so I always practised as a kid with my right foot.
Quote by -John McGinn
I remember when I was at St Mirren someone called me the ugliest thing they had seen at Tynecastle, and two minutes later I scored - it was brilliant. I just laugh it off - I agree with them most of the time!
Quote by -John McGinn
A lot of players and pundits can be talking the Scottish league down and it's not until players and coaches actually experience it they start respecting it.
Quote by -John McGinn
I remember when I was training with St Mirren as a young boy Ralston was my Hampden and my Wembley.
Quote by -John McGinn
I want to play for Scotland at a major tournament, that is the dream and the drive for me.
Quote by -John McGinn
I look at the likes of Darren Fletcher and Scott Brown and they're just normal people. They are humble and work away to become the best they can. That's the path I've tried to follow.
Quote by -John McGinn
To be honest, I had a brilliant group of players at Hibs and the support were very fair with me. They didn't make it difficult.
Quote by -John McGinn
Opponents know how to get the fouls and it's gone against me a couple of times.
Quote by -John McGinn
If you are going to be successful in football you have to make sacrifices and that's something I am happy to do.
Quote by -John McGinn
Alan Hutton and I are always fighting the corner for Scottish football. It's a really tough league down here with a lot of quality players trying to get into the Premier League.
Quote by -John McGinn
You work so hard to get to a level and you need to grab your chance with both hands.
Quote by -John McGinn
You have to be able to deal with the pressures that playing for a big club like Hibs brings and it's not for everyone.
Quote by -John McGinn
When you have a good relationship with a manager, and he leaves, it is disappointing.
Quote by -John McGinn
Scoring at the big stadiums in Glasgow is something I have dreamed about doing since I was a wee boy and now I have managed to do that.
Quote by -John McGinn
I was fortunate to be able to go to the Scotland games with my grandad and it's scary to think I could now be playing in one.
Quote by -John McGinn
The benefit of coming to a place like Greece and winning is priceless for your development.
Quote by -John McGinn
Sometimes you just need a wee bit time away from football to freshen things up.
Quote by -John McGinn
I think you're always fighting a losing battle when you're Scottish and I don't think that's right. I think the way that people look at Scottish football is wrong, but at the same time, we have to start proving it on the park and start showing it again.
Quote by -John McGinn
If someone is going to spend a whole game marking you, then there may be games when I will have to sacrifice myself for the team and take them away and create space for a team-mate.
Quote by -John McGinn
You need to be brave to able to stand up to tough atmospheres and against top players.
Quote by -John McGinn
Every young kid growing up playing football dreams of playing in those big famous stadiums.
Quote by -John McGinn
There's something special about big midweek games at Easter Road, under the lights, that makes us have that little bit extra about us.
Quote by -John McGinn
I think people maybe had a perception of me that I was just a hard working player, just a runner. Don't get me wrong, I think I am that but I've got a lot more to my game than that.
Quote by -John McGinn
There's always going to be that question going up a division. Can you do it? Are you only good against the players in a lower division?
Quote by -John McGinn
I've worked under a lot of managers, whether it's the national team or at St Mirren and everyone has their moments. I think it is important, you can't just let things pass if they are not good enough.
Quote by -John McGinn
No matter where it is or who it's against, I will always be available for Scotland as long as I am fit.
Quote by -John McGinn
You learn more from defeats and it makes you hungry to go and improve the next time. That's the way I have dealt with things during my whole career.
Quote by -John McGinn
You want to be challenging for titles and in semi-finals and finals. Everyone is excited by that.
Quote by -John McGinn
Well I'm still a massive Celtic supporter. And I always will be. That will never leave you.
Quote by -John McGinn
In Scotland you can enter a comfort zone. I felt I had already developed a reputation there and felt it was important to prove I can play elsewhere.
Quote by -John McGinn
If you've not got the doubts to go and prove people wrong, that's when you get into that comfort zone and stop progressing.
Quote by -John McGinn
I know I have been compared with Broony and he is a player I've looked up to massively. When I first went into the Scotland squad he took me under his wing.
Quote by -John McGinn
You will always have people to prove wrong. I always have done and I always will. I use that to spur me on and stay hungry and that's the big aim.
Quote by -John McGinn
I think it's really hard to replace what Scott Brown brought to Scotland. He was one of a kind and there aren't too many players like Broony. But for me, the more you try and replicate him, the more difficult it becomes.
Quote by -John McGinn
People do like to talk us down, it's a Scottish thing. We are pessimistic, we look for the negatives all the time.
Quote by -John McGinn
Sometimes a manager will assess the other team through the warm-up and try to get an inkling as to what way they are going to be playing.
Quote by -John McGinn
All you want to do is first and foremost a job for the team but if you can entertain the people in the stands, and make then enjoy their day, then it helps.
Quote by -John McGinn
Going to places like Tynecastle, where you're so close to the crowd, you get reminded how ugly you are and stuff like that!
Quote by -John McGinn
When a Scottish player goes down the road you're always going to get doubters. You always get people saying you're from a pub league.
Quote by -John McGinn
Hopefully I can challenge myself and establish myself as a Premier League player for Aston Villa.
