I guess making my debut outside of England would have been a bit more difficult but it was nice to debut somewhere that you're familiar with.

Jofra Archer

When I was setting out as a kid, five, six, seven years old, England was a dream. One of my best days as a player was my England debut - but it didn't quite happen after that!

Michael Carrick

I made my England debut when I was 17, against India. I was the first Asian to play for the England women's team, and I did have mixed feelings playing against the country my parents are from but I was born and bred in England and I've always known I wanted to play for my country.

Isa Guha

As long as I get an opportunity, with my ability, I can do well. My England debut was an opportunity for me to show that, and I was really happy with how I did.

Ruben Loftus-Cheek

I was just 17 when I made my debut for Lancashire against Hampshire at Portsmouth. I got seven and a duck. I didn't get a wicket, either. Funnily enough, it was more nerve-wracking than playing for England.

Andrew Flintoff

Making my England debut was a massive achievement.

Danny Ings

My debut was against England back in 2012.

Marco Verratti

It was relief really, to know that I have scored on my England debut.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin

It's difficult as a player once you have gone back to Brazil to get that second chance in Europe. Sometimes you only get one chance.

Thiago Silva

You only get one world premiere of your directorial debut.

Geoffrey S. Fletcher

The Savior isn't our last chance; He is our only chance. Our only chance to overcome self-doubt and catch a vision of who we may become. Our only chance to repent and have our sins washed clean.

Sheri L. Dew

If England was what England seems, An not the England of our dreams, But only putty, brass, an' paint, 'Ow quick we'd chuck 'er! But she ain't!

Rudyard Kipling

I didn't see myself playing regularly at right-back for Manchester United or making my England debut in that position.

Chris Smalling

Roaring like a tiger turns some children into pianists who debut at Carnegie Hall but only crushes others. Coddling gives some the excuse to fail and others the chance to succeed.
