I'm lucky to have played two different positions. But of course the experience I gained as a full back - knowledge of defending, and taking up the right positions, helps me as a midfielder.

Philipp Lahm

I would say I am more comfortable in the centre of midfield. But when you are at a big club like Liverpool, you maybe get played in positions with which you might not be so familiar. But you have got to learn the different roles, because it gives you a better opportunity to play.

Jordan Henderson

I think I'm more than capable of playing in positions such as right-back, centre-back and centre-mid.

Phil Jones

I'm a versatile player, can play in numerous positions, and I have a good football brain, even if it is getting older.

Ashley Young

I can play in six different positions where managers can trust me. It must give them food for thought knowing I can do a job in different positions.

Ashley Young

That was always something I remember, playing in loads of different positions when I was younger, and learning about what it takes to play a right-wing role, or holding midfield, or as a striker. I had a lot of experiences in those different formations and positions.

Mason Mount

I am actually comfortable in every position in midfield. At Bayern Munich, I even played as a winger and sometimes a full-back, so I can play many different positions.

Bastian Schweinsteiger

When I've watched teams that play with five at the back and wing-backs, I've looked at their starting positions and positions out of possession because that comes a little bit more unnaturally to me.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

I did learn a lot of things in different positions, wing-back, winger and striker as well so I am happy to go and learn different positions which I like and I trust the process of Nuno Espirito Santo.

Adama Traore

The positions I played in football, being a quarterback and a defensive back, you had to kind of have a little independent thinking.

Hale Irwin

I can play a lot of positions, but obviously I haven't had a lot of practice at those different positions.

Glenn Gronkowski

There are no hopeless positions; there are only inferior positions that can be saved. There are no drawn positions; there are only equal ones in which you can play for a win. But at the same time, don't forget that there is no such thing as a won position in which it is impossible to lose.
