Doncaster Rovers: '˜Love of life' drives Alfie May's club-best training ground performance

And Alfie May says his enjoyment of life as a professional footballer is powering his performance at Cantley Park.

The striker is more than 18 months into his career as a full time pro after joining from eighth tier Hythe Town.

And he insists he will never take for granted the position he is currently in.

'I love coming into training and coming in with a smile on my face every single day,' he said.

'This is a big thing for me. It was my life.

'I enjoy every single day.

'Speaking to family and friends at home, when I first moved up here they were worried how I'd settle in but I've made some great friends and it feels like home at the minute.

'I want to work. I think you've got to train how you play.

'If you work hard on the training pitch then hopefully you get rewarded with starts.
