A Quote by Alexandre Pato

I remember my first time in the Champions League. I was 18, and it was Arsenal against Milan at The Emirates. The night before, I remember I put my music on my iPod. I was lying in bed, and I listened to the Champions League music. That was my Champions League debut, my first time. It was beautiful.

If I had a choice between the Champions League and the Golden Boot, then of course it would be the Champions League - no doubt the Champions League.

Mohamed Salah

My best Champions League moment was when Milan won in 2007 against Liverpool. That was the biggest moment for me in the Champions League.

Kaka

I always say it must not be an obsession to win the Champions League. It's a very important title and beautiful to do it. But you must not try to win the Champions League and lose focus on the Premier League.

Manuel Pellegrini

What puts you in a different level is if you win the Premier League, and you're capable of challenging every season for the Premier League, and if you play Champions League, and you really believe, and you're a real contender one day to win the Champions League. That's my objective in Tottenham.

Mauricio Pochettino

We know how important both competitions are, especially the Champions League since it's such a special competition, but we want to win the league too. We take it game by game - concentrate on our league games, win them and then start thinking about the Champions League.

Casemiro

I'll remember my first league title, my first cup, the Champions League. But also the defeats - that's also part of football.

Philipp Lahm

The Champions League without Milan is not the Champions League.

Kevin-Prince Boateng

I'm ambitious, I want to play in the Champions League, and that's the aim with Tottenham - to start qualifying for the Champions League on a consistent basis.

Gareth Bale

All of Europe's biggest clubs place the Champions' League as their top priority these days but only one of us can lift the trophy. The domestic league titles are still crucial of course, but I think most players will tell you the Champions' League is the one they want to win most of all.

Jaap Stam

Oliver Kahn against Valencia in 2001 - this was the first Champions League game I remember. I was a Bayern fan.

Loris Karius

It's Champions League nights when our fans roar us on even more, lose their voices, and we really notice it. That's what the Champions League means to me.

Sergio Busquets

I had a dream to play in the Champions League, so every time I play for Real Madrid, and in the Champions League, I try to enjoy it as much as possible because it's the realisation of a dream.

Casemiro

I remember for my Champions League debut against Anderlecht, my dad flew 27 hours to reach that game and he was crying all 95 minutes!

Emiliano Martinez

I don't think a lot of players reach a Champions League final. If you look at how many goalkeepers in the league reach a Champions League final, I don't know.

Loris Karius

I want to win the Champions League first. If I can win the Ballon d'Or, okay, but my objective is to win the Champions League first.
