Aston Villa and Republic of Ireland midfielder CONOR HOURIHANE, who is the club's top scorer this season, on facing Ross Barkley and why John Terry is the best he's played with...

Conor Hourihane has made a fine start to the season with Aston Villa

FIRST FOOTBALL MEMORY - Playing football at home in Cork with close friends at every chance we got. I was born and brought up in Cork until I signed for the Sunderland academy shortly after my 16th birthday.

BEST PLAYER I'VE PLAYED WITH - John Terry and Seamus Coleman. For all he's achieved in the game, John has worked and trained hard every day at Villa, and never gives the ball away. Seamus was a fantastic team-mate of mine for the Republic Under 21s and we want him back from injury to wear the Ireland shirt again.

TOUGHEST OPPONENT - I've played Everton a few times and Ross Barkley has always been very good. When I was at Barnsley, we led Everton 2-0 in the League Cup until Barkley came on and they ended up winning 5-3.

Ross Barkley is the opponent who gave Hourihane and his team-mates the toughest time

FAVOURITE FOOTBALLING MOMENT - Winning two trophies at Wembley. Barnsley beat Millwall 3-1 in the League One play-off final in 2016 and we also won the Johnstone's Paint Trophy Final against Oxford the same season.

SPORTING HERO - Roy Keane. He's from Cork like me so he was mine growing up. He later became my manager at Sunderland and Ipswich.

Hourihane has plenty of fond memories of former Manchester United captain Roy Keane

TOUGHEST AWAY GROUND - Accrington on a wet and cold Tuesday night. They knocked Barnsley out of the FA Cup there - on a Saturday!

FIRST ALBUM YOU BOUGHT - (What's The Story) Morning Glory? by Oasis

(What's the Story) Morning Glory? by Oasis was the first album Hourihane bought

KARAOKE SONG - Ain't No Stopping Us Now by McFadden and Whitehead.

BEST-DRESSED TEAM-MATE - Alan Hutton wears some nice gear.

DREAM DINNER-PARTY GUESTS - Sir Alex Ferguson and Roy Keane, you wouldn't need any more! Roy was Sunderland's manager when I first went over. He was a big influence and always very good to me. He'd always chat to me and check everything was OK.

IF I WASN'T A FOOTBALLER, I'D BE... Not sure, but something to do with sport.
