Many in the world would have us choose safer options - keep this player, instead of taking a gamble on a player whose name you don't know. But when that player becomes Robert Covington, people are excited. We've chosen that sort of thing very often.

Sam Hinkie

It is one of my biggest regrets that Niall Quinn was not here during my time... I felt he was an intelligent player. It would have been a good combination with Thierry Henry. What I like with Quinn is if you look at the player who played next to him, he always scored 40 goals because he had a hand for his head and he just put the ball where you were. He was a team player. A top-class player makes other players look good and he had that player.

Arsene Wenger

I never gave up as a player, and I won't give up as someone who wants to go to the Hall of Fame, because it's the ultimate goal for a baseball player or a football player or a basketball player.

Pete Rose

It's tough at first. You realize in the NBA, it's not easy. Each and every night, you're playing against that player that was the best high school player, that player that was the best player on his college team.

Devin Booker

Golf is the only game where the worst player gets the best of it. He obtains more out of it as regards both exercise and enjoyment, for the good player gets worried over the slightest mistake, whereas the poor player makes too many mistakes to worry about them.

David Lloyd George

What makes the difference between a great player and just a normal player is dedication, work, commitment.

Thierry Henry

When I talk about the early years in Oakland, I don't want to take anything away from who that player was, because that player was still a heck of a player, that player was just young. I played off the field the same way that I played on the field.

Charles Woodson

Everyone needs a coach. It doesn't matter whether you're a basketball player, a tennis player, a gymnast or a bridge player.

Bill Gates

I want people to see me as a two-way player. A defensive player and an offensive player.

Avery Bradley

Fans saying a player is overpaid doesn't bother a player. What bothers an injured player is watching your competitors grow.

Gilbert Arenas

There were situations in my career where I played much better than another player in my position, but that player had a better name in terms of commercial appeal.

Ryan Babel

To me, a hockey player has to be every sport rolled into one: ice skater, baseball player, football player, etc. It's just incredible to watch!

Vinnie Paul

In small space a player has to be capable of acting quickly. A good player who needs too much time can suddenly become a poor player.

Johan Cruijff

My dad was a steelworker but I had the opportunity to become a player. A very average player but a player all the same. But I worked my socks off to make something of myself.

Tony Pulis

I want to be a Premier League player, a Liverpool player and an England player.

Rhian Brewster

I was the No. 1 player in high school. I was a lottery player at Duke. I was player of the year in the ACC as a freshman. People just forget about these things, like I don't deserve to be in the league.
