Quotes:

Roger [Federer], he brought tennis... one level higher. Normally he toys with everybody. With all respect to other players, he does whatever he wants on the court against them. It's incredible what kind of game he can play.
View quotes by Marat Safin

I had a glass of wine with Alex Ferguson and we spoke for half an hour. I told him how Inter will play against United and he named his 11 players for the game
View quotes by Jose Mourinho

A few years ago if you went down easily it was a sign of weakness but there is a different mentality now.

If you watch the game in Spain and Italy they are not afraid to go down. Big strong players do it to try to get people booked and sent off.
View quotes by Jason Roberts

One cannot play chess if one becomes aware of the pieces as living souls and of the fact that the Whites and the Blacks have more in common with each other than with the players. Suddenly one loses all interest in who will be champion.
View quotes by Anatol Rapoport

Systems can help you, but if you took the England players who took part in those three games and got the best coach in the world to work with them for a year, it wouldn't have made any difference. [on England's Euro 2000 performance]
View quotes by Alan Hansen

Tony Blair was on Football Focus the other week and named me as one of his favourite players. My father-in-law phoned me and said 'I've never heard such rubbish!' - but I think it's great. I voted Lib-Dem last time but I'm Labour again now
View quotes by Arjan De Zeeuw

It might be a move in six months. But I'll make up my mind. I'll have a look at where I've been and where I want to go and I'll continue in that way. [replying to calls for him to resign as Coach of English cricket. It's not his fault the players were rubbish against Aussie in 2006!]
View quotes by Duncan Fletcher

It's history in the making and to be a part of it is probably the best day of my cricketing career. The club has put in a lot of hard work and we've a perfect blend of youngsters and good experienced players. [on Durham winning...something]
View quotes by Dale Benkenstein

England did nothing in the World Cup, so why are the players bringing books out? 'We got beat in the quarter-finals, we played like sh*t, here's my book'. Who wants to read that? I don't. [To be fair he has an excellent point - it's not even like they need the cash on their salaries!]
View quotes by Joey Barton

I've got too many Cavaliers in my side, and not enough Roundheads. Too many players with plumes and feathers but not enough hard workers. And the Roundheads won in the end.
View quotes by Paul Sturrock

He's beloved. Not many players become what he has become. You know that he [Agassi] is going to be equally famous and equally successful in his post career.
View quotes by Lindsay Davenport

Performance level is what we are all about - players, management and referees. I do not think [referee] Mr Dowd would have been proud of his performance.
View quotes by Mark Hughes

A captain should set the example for his players to follow and it is not acceptable for any player, let alone a captain, to question an umpire's decision.
View quotes by Chris Broad

View quotes by Blaine Lee

Carlos Ferrero, Carlos Moya, Gaston Gaudio: these are the best players on clay.
View quotes by Rafael Nadal

People just looked lost. Too many players looked like fish on trees. [on England losing to Croatia]
View quotes by Paul Merson

We have enough players in our squad here who can hit the ball over the ropes. So, hopefully, at some stage there will be a role there for a nudger and nurdler like me. It's not a glamorous role, but it is there.
View quotes by Andrew Strauss

I told our players not to be overawed by their stars. I said 'They're human, just like you. They pee just like you. Imagine Giggs and Cantona having a piss. They don't piss wine.
View quotes by Uri Geller

We are against drugs at all times but players do not take recreational drugs to cheat or gain an advantage - in fact they are detrimental to the individual.
