That is probably the biggest issue about the English game. You need to be a great player and great at striking the ball, of course, but it's also about your head and being able to understand the game, especially for a midfielder.

Xabi Alonso

When teams are dropping off, it's difficult, especially as a striker. You always have two centre-halves behind you and maybe a sitting midfielder as well. It's a bit more difficult creating chances.

Harry Kane

When I go into games as a forward, my job is really clear, and I just have to execute. But as a midfielder, you get to sort of enjoy the game more, and you get to feel the game and dictate the play.

Kelley O'Hara

I have always been a midfielder, and I remain a midfielder.

Frenkie de Jong

I think, as a midfielder, you need to have that aggression as part of your game.

Naby Keita

I was a No. 9 for so long and that's what I knew. And I think, me as an attacking midfielder, or any kind of midfielder, I should be in and around the box and have that mindset that I'm going to score and help my team as much as possible.

Lindsey Horan

I have already worked Dunga. He helped me at Internacional, making me a more defensive midfielder. But I can play as a first or second midfielder, like I do at Shakhtar.

Fred

All players rolled into one: from defensive midfielder to attacking midfielder to attacker. I want to take the qualities from everyone. I'd like to get to the level where I have everything: Vieira, Deschamps, Zidane, Ronaldinho, Henry, Ronaldo. It wouldn't be bad, that.

Paul Pogba

Pogba is a midfielder who has all the qualities. When you are a midfielder you normally have some special qualities but he has everything.

Ander Herrera

What features in a midfielder am I after? Players who have the mindset to win every game - then we can start to talk about the technical quality.

Rafael Benitez

Are modern children going to revolt against being modern, and if so, what form will reaction of modern parents take?

E. M. Delafield

It is especially difficult for modern people to conceive that our modern, scientific age might not be an improvement over the prescientific period.

Michael Crichton

I'm famous for being a silky midfielder.

Phil Daniels

I obviously know how good I was, and people refer to the modern game being tougher.

Stephen Hendry

I like to take a little bit from every midfielder I have played against, whether it's physically, technically, tactically, just to try to improve my game.

Harry Winks

Busquets is a great player. I have many things to learn from him: how he shapes the game from the back, his positioning, the balance he provided in the midfielder.

Casemiro
