The video captures his transition from the high-intensity viral success of the World Cup back to the daily routine of training, filming commercial content, and finding mental peace through traditional Norwegian outdoor activities.
Hello guys, welcome back to another episode on my channel.
Today we're doing another day in the life.
I'm back in Manchester, back in training for a new season.
Got a new haircut as well.
So yeah, let's see what I'm up to.
Let's have some fun.
Oh I missed the hair, yeah.
Did you, yeah?
Yeah, up there?
Yeah.
Did you get your coffee and go?
No, not at all.
That's the best part.
Wake up, get it done, I'll do anything.
Do you want anything in your hair?
Do the hair as best as you can.
Is it starting to relax?
Like you said.
Is it not?
Still picking up?
Straight on.
Is it because it's used to being backwards?
Yeah.
Now you're trying to train it forward?
Just straight on.
How long is it now?
Well, since you've done it, like three days, four days.
Oh, it's not that long.
So how's everyone reacted, lads, to the new hair?
Didn't expect the whole world to speak about my hair for three days.
It's just hair.
It's going to grow out, isn't it?
Happy?
You're happy?
Thoughts?
You're going to do the hair or not?
You've done it?
Yeah, did you not just see me do it?
What did you do with it?
Put a little bit of product in it.
You think it looks good?
Yeah.
Alright, then we'll trust in you.
Do you not?
I mean, it's just Etihad, it's just the main sponsor of the city, so...
No pressure.
No pressure?
No pressure.
Ready?
Are you happy?
Happy.
Three, two, one, action.
Got a bit sleepy after that.
Can you just walk from right about here for me?
And then over to this corner.
Big smiles, you're on the beach, not in the studio in Manchester.
Alright, whenever you're ready.
Good luck trick-singing in an ice club.
Three, two, one, action.
Cheers, guys.
Thank you very much.
Take care.
Thank you.
What do you think of that car there?
Woah!
Nice car, Antoine.
Yeah, you've got a nice, nice, nice car as well, mate.
Good guy, Antoine.
You like him?
Top guy.
He's the perfect Premier League player.
Physical, you know, just the whole total package.
A bit like me.
Is it good to be back with the lads, though?
Yeah, no, it's good to be back.
When I came home, I was like, wow, it's good to be home.
But it's just, it's not being back, it's just weird because so much has happened.
And I haven't even digested what just happened.
A new season started and I didn't have a pre-season.
Normally, I always have a bit of a pre-season, but this time, just nothing.
Physical will come if you manage to stay injury-free.
But you need to be sharp mental as well.
That's not easy.
You played football when you were 10 years old and you had a season there as well.
Then in the summer, you didn't have a season.
You know, so the whole summer you didn't play games.
And then you were so eager to go back and train with your friends.
And this eager feeling, we need to have us as well.
But again, we don't because there's no time to properly stay away from football.
Because there's so many games and the season is longer.
But again, I don't want to complain about this because, and I'm not complaining,
because it's still a positive thing that you get to play football throughout the whole year and live of it.
But sometimes we need a break as well, you know.
So we'll see.
I've never been in this situation before.
I never played a World Cup, so I don't know how it is.
Oh, that's the same.
He looks like a viking.
Thank you for that.
No problem.
I'm getting tired now.
Ready for training?
Yeah, f**k me.
Not training as well.
No, that's good though.
Punishment.
You like my shorts?
Thank you for bringing this, probably small.
Come on.
Here?
Yeah.
So, I'm just going to get you to...
Are we doing a following shot?
Action.
Really nice.
Do the same thing.
Can you come and take one...
That was not good because I have to do it five more times.
That's rough.
Thank you, guys.
Got that out of the way.
Now training next.
First the feast, treatment, gym, training.
Oh, no!
It looks five years now.
Want to play it against him?
He said he would do it.
It's good, huh?
Nah.
It's like you tucking your bed.
It's the same.
Yeah, you...
You go five years straight up.
This is what you had for years.
My hair is just going straight up.
Because it's so used to being that way.
So, when I do this, it just goes back.
You too.
You okay?
Yeah.
Welcome.
Good to see you.
Thank you.
What did you order?
Pesto and chicken.
You?
The same.
Of course.
Always the same.
What else have you got in the back there?
I'd love some bass today, please.
Emma, what's this?
Cookies in tomato sauce.
Chickpea is like a chickpea burger.
Chickpea burger.
Great.
Whacking some veggies at the table.
What we saying, Andres?
Got any juice for me or what?
Thank you.
Next.
Good service.
What a meal.
Sea bass.
Fresh pasta.
Unreal.
Few veggies at the table.
Some hummus with pita bread.
Fresh apple juice.
It's true the story.
Which story?
You lost the power.
No.
Eh, come on.
What?
Just a little bit.
No?
Didn't lose power.
Well, time will tell.
Eh, don't tell nothing.
This is locker.
A cap.
Brush.
Which I don't need anymore.
We're going in treatment room.
What?
Come on.
Get on Walter here.
How are you, my mate?
Right, Walter.
You alright, Walter?
Got the camera crew with you today.
Like, get on Antoine again.
He needs to be famous.
Oh, really?
Me?
Yeah.
I'm doing a quiz right now.
Oh, my God.
We need your help, of course.
Quiz boys.
Fed up with them quizzes of yours.
What do you speak?
English?
Spanish.
English.
French?
German?
No, nothing.
Nothing?
No, nothing.
I know few words in Norwegian.
Norwegian?
Yeah.
Why?
Only bad words.
Bad words.
That's good.
You're training today?
Yeah.
Yeah?
Straight in.
It's been a long day, so let's make it even longer now.
Let's go.
Well, guys.
I bought something.
My own caravan.
Supreme one.
All Supreme.
That's where I collect all my Supreme stuff.
Bought it from the US.
It's actually a Supreme one.
Everything Supreme.
Where do you plan to take it?
Just go drive somewhere.
What do you think?
Sleep in here.
I think it's a great idea.
Get your fishing rods in.
Sick.
I'll take you to my favourite place now.
Let's go.
How nice is it to be back at home and walking around your own house?
It'd be also nice to have a few more weeks of holiday.
But no, it's good to be back.
Get it back into the routine, you know.
And also play football, you know.
Because in the end, you miss it.
Even though you just played football.
You kind of miss the everyday thing with the lads and everything.
So, voila.
This is where the magic happens.
This is where I chop the wood and I burn it.
It gives me peace in my mind.
That's what I like about it.
Chop wood, burn it.
Relax alone.
It's quite empty now, though.
Get the things out so I can...
People will think I'm joking.
This is actually what I'm doing.
I'll take it inside here.
How long have you been doing this?
As long as I can remember.
We always did it in my cabin.
You know?
Cabin back in Norway.
Is it a bit of a Norwegian thing?
Yeah, I love it.
It's a little cosy.
Cosy moments.
Burn some wood.
Love to be outside.
Inside.
But I prefer like this.
Camping vibe.
You know?
Because it's peaceful and it's calm.
That's why I love it.
My father taught me this.
So, firewood makes you hot several times.
First, you need to chop the tree down.
You get hot.
You need to make these ones.
Make you hot.
You need to chop them.
Make you hot.
You need to put them.
For drying.
Make you hot.
You need to go get it and bring it inside.
That makes you hot.
And then you can burn it.
Makes you hot.
Six times.
Six times you're getting hot from that one tree.
I think it's really good for me.
Clears my mind.
You know?
So, this is what I'm doing.
When I'm home.
You might not believe it.
But...
I don't care.
What am I saying?
I am a weirdo.
Don't forget.
Good training.
Now, let's see if it's burning inside.
Come on.
Have a look.
Oh, it did.
Bang it on.
Yesterday, I did an hour.
So, I'm actually...
I'm stiff today.
Like normal.
I do like small periods.
Just leave the wood here.
What do you think of when you look at that fire there?
Peace.
Pure peace.
I love it.
One of my favorite things to look at.
Is...
This fire.
Nature is life.
Eat less.
Lose weight.
Don't drink.
Die anyway.
I like that one.
So, I bought it.
Yeah.
We all need to enjoy life.
Don't take yourself too seriously.
A few nice ones up there.
It's good.
Too small.
This was a plum tree.
But now, they're obviously...
We ate them all.
The peace is here.
So nice.
Yesterday, we had a day off.
I didn't do anything.
I was like...
Walking around.
I didn't know what to do.
That's why we're now here.
We're just here for two hours.
Alone.
After World Cup, so much things happened.
After holidays, you're like...
Now, you just...
You need to slow things down.
Yeah, just everything...
Told everything together.
Norway.
Doing the role.
Doing so well in the World Cup.
Now, just everything together.
How well it worked together.
It's just...
Crazy.
Feels like we won the World Cup.
In some way.
I don't say we won it.
I expected to take Norway to the World Cup.
Of course, I'm gonna try to take them to the Euros.
But to go so far.
Beating Brazil.
Going so viral.
Getting the role.
Going so viral.
The whole world was talking about the role.
Even holidays.
People just...
Even now.
Meeting people in the street.
Just crazy.
You know, the whole thing together was just so perfect that...
It's just crazy.
This is my little...
A few shirts.
And a few shoes.
From the World Cup.
So, I'll show it to you guys.
Starting up with...
Signed Travis ones from Travis.
Not bad.
A good start.
Do you know what I mean?
Let's go to the next one.
Oh, another pair signed from Travis.
Coloured with Travis.
Look at that.
The world is yours.
You wrote.
You drew on them.
Unreal shoe.
These shoes, I think I wore them before my World Cup shoes.
Obviously, my own shoe.
They're sick.
So nice.
Here we got the...
So, obviously, these were the shoes I wore at the whole World Cup.
Bikesman shoes.
Nice as well.
Pink.
Interesting colour.
Of World Cup shoes.
To be fair, everyone had pink shoes.
But yeah, bagged a few golds with them.
Texas was incredible as well.
A memory which I will be having the rest of my life.
Amazing experience.
And...
Yeah.
Just...
Just crazy.
Then we got...
Watch.
Breitling made.
So, in the back, there's obviously the logo of Norway.
World Cup USA, Mexico and Canada, 2026.
Norway national football team, 1 of 50.
Debut shirt.
First half against Iraq.
Signed by the players.
You can see here.
Date.
Date, Iraq-Norway.
16th of June.
Smells crap as well.
Ivory Coast.
Morocco.
Friendly game before.
Kimi.
Played with him in Dortmund.
Then we got Rhys James.
Harry Kane.
Jude.
Lovely little message.
Too early.
You're one of a kind.
Love you, brother.
Keep going.
A kind little message from Jude.
Nick O'Reilly.
Incredible player as well.
James Trafford.
And then, a really special one.
Neymar's last international jersey.
Ever.
So, this is really special.
So, let's keep going now.
Next jerseys.
Lucas.
Hernandez.
Thuram.
Of course.
Cherki.
What a legend.
Last one.
Kylian.
Kylian as well.
That's also a nice shirt.
With all the other stuff, I'm going to keep it.
I'm going to keep it somewhere safe.
Away from here.
Lock it all up and then in the future I want to have everything together.
Hopefully.
And I can show the world all my things.
All the jerseys.
All the players I played against and swapped shirts with.
I think to have that in one place in the future.
I don't know where it's going to be.
I think that could be amazing.
How do you feel when you look at that?
Sick.
So nice.
Good memories as well.
That's why I like to swap shirts with people.
Because it brings good memories and also it's nice.
It's history.
When I think of James Corden.
Thinking of me.
Looks more like Donald Trump than me.
Don't you think?
So that's my day in the life.
New season.
It's going to be an interesting one.
Now I need to put the World Cup behind me.
Fully focus on City.
Leave everything behind.
And look ahead.
Stay tuned because we have loads of things planned for the channel.
So we keep going.
As always, thank you so much.
Appreciate the love.
I'll see you guys soon.
Thank you so much.
Peace.
