We hope that we can follow in their footsteps.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EDan: \u0022Same as Ethan, it\u0027s still a long way for us to get anywhere near those names, they were massive for Leeds and Wales. Gary obviously changed the way Wales were set up, he changed the venue we trained at, he brought a lot of nutrition into the set up, and it\u0027s gave us as young players, a great pathway of coming through.\u0022\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EJoe: \u0022Touching on what both Ethan and Dan have said, they were both icons of Welsh football, and football in general, all three of us are just grateful for the opportunity that we\u0027ve been given, hopefully we can just continue growing as players and do everyone proud.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cimg src=\u0022https://dc6vmiz8c91pk.cloudfront.net/media/12/32933032114186/podcast_001.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Dan James, Ethan Ampadu and Joe Rodon pictured at the JD Live event\u0022 /\u003E\uFEFF\uFEFF\uFEFF\uFEFF\uFEFF\uFEFF\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cstrong\u003EBeing idols for Leeds fans like myself, who were your idols growing up?\u003C/strong\u003E\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EDan: \u0022For me, I think it was Thierry Henry, I looked up to him a lot as a player, the things he could do on the pitch was ridiculous, he had everything.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EEthan: \u0022My idol growing up was Drogba. Believe it or not, I used to be a striker and score goals. Like DJ said with Henry, I just enjoyed watching Drogba play, the way he bullied defenders, he was a joy to watch.\u0022\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003EJoe: \u0022Similar players to these two, Ronaldinho and Brazilian Ronaldo. When you grow up, I think everyone wants to be a striker and score goals, they were incredible to watch and just made me want to play football.\u0022\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u003Cimg src=\u0022https://dc6vmiz8c91pk.cloudfront.net/media/12/39842008238338/podcast_002.png\u0022 alt=\u0022Dan James, Ethan Ampadu and Joe Rodon pictured at the JD Live event\u0022 /\u003E\uFEFF\uFEFF\uFEFF\uFEFF\uFEFF\u003C/p\u003E"
