A Quote by Andrew Flintoff

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.

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

My first experience playing for England was very scary and nerve wracking.

Eniola Aluko

It's always a little nerve-wracking to do a love scene, more than anything because it's just awkward.

Annie Parisse

You're not just playing for yourself but for your country, and that's nerve-wracking. It makes you work harder.

Evonne Goolagong Cawley

Festivals are weird, you never know what to expect so it's a bit more nerve wracking then playing your own show.

Frank Iero

Parenting is much more nerve-wracking than 'Jeopardy!'

James Holzhauer

It can be a little nerve-wracking sometimes feeling like I have to do more than I really do.

Eddy Alvarez

At seven, I played centre-back. When you're so young, though, it's more to enjoy the training and to get a feel for the game. It's not heavy on tactics of a position. We were playing on a half pitch, seven against seven or eight against eight, so they say you're a centre-back, but it's not like the real definition.

Georginio Wijnaldum

The studio work is the nasty, tedious, hard and nerve-wracking part, interrupted by moments of exhilaration. Playing live is the chance to actually have some fun and get on a stage.

Tom Scholz

It's definitely more nerve-wracking being in front of the cameras, although I'm trying to get better at it.

Carlos Vela

It's always nerve-wracking when you're hosting "Saturday Night Live." You either sink or swim.

Christina Aguilera

It's always nerve-wracking when you're hosting 'Saturday Night Live.' You either sink or swim.

I went in to Reading with the full backing of the chairman, who was great to me, and I got 20 games. Even though it was a three-year project, and I was the guy who knew the club more than anyone, I got the sack after 20 games. Funnily enough, it had just started to pick up, but they lost their patience.

Brendan Rodgers

I can only compare myself to the players I was playing against. To say I won the Order of Merit playing only seven events out of 17 was to me a big achievement.

Ian Poulter

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!
