I always found it a great challenge playing against Michael Jordan, to play against Magic Johnson, to play against Larry Bird, to play against all those good players because it's something that you can take away from it.

Shawn Kemp

Teams like Bayern are who you want to be playing; if you want to test yourselves against the best you have to play them.

Phil Jones

I don't want to play for any team. I prefer playing for a lower team and playing against the best. I don't like playing with them: I want to play against them... and beat them.

Metta World Peace

A basketball was in my hands 24/7, playing one-on-one against everybody and anybody, trying to prove against the older guys, just playing. The wind blowing outside, double rims, stuff like that, just always playing ball.

Terry Rozier

I would prefer to play for and against an attacking team, but I am now used to playing against defensive teams.

Sadio Mane

When you're playing a good team, not too many point guards want to go one on one. When you're playing a not-so-good team, teams that are fighting to make the playoffs, guys are going to want to try and get their own. It's just a different read of each team.

Patrick Beverley

I want to play in the Premier League, the Champions League, and I want to continue playing for England. If I'm going to do that, I have to play for my club and put in good performances for my club because there are other English midfielders who are doing that in the Premier League.

Jack Wilshere

I had a chance to play against the USA teams when I was a player. I wasn't on any USA team but scrimmaging against them and playing against them was a highlight.

Danny Ainge

When you play in the Premier League, say you're playing against a lower-end team, they set up to defend all the time, they set up to block you off. But when you play in the Champions League, all the other teams are used to winning every week, so it's more of an open game, it's more attacking, end-to-end.

Gareth Bale

Once you play a tournament, you're playing against the golf course, you're playing against yourself and trying to do the best you can.

Jack Nicklaus

If you're playing against someone, you always want them playing flat out and at their best - so when you are successful you know you've produced a really good performance.

Joe Root

Arsenal play attractive football, and I enjoy that. I think you could see against the MLS side that this team has a lot of quality, and we'll give our all to show that on the pitch.

Granit Xhaka

If you want to be a good team, you have to play against the best teams. For me, personally, I want to have tough challenges.

Goran Dragic

It is a great challenge to be playing against the best players in the world, and I always wanted to play in the Premier League and be a part of this league.

Petr Cech

I think playing against [Lionel Messi] is pretty difficult. Playing by the side of the best of the world is always good. Things get easier. And if I have to win, may it be by Messi's side. It would be great.
