It's always good to have great players around you. You have to battle for your place, and it makes you more hungry on the training pitch, and you know, when you get your chance, you have to take it.
The surprise is half the battle. Many things are half the battle, losing is half the battle. Let's think about what's the whole battle.
There are a lot of great players that never got a chance to play for a national championship. And I got a chance to play for two.
Sometimes offensive players get turned into defensive players, which sometimes isn't a bad thing, but for me I need a chance to play more offense.
I was a good football player, and I had a chance to play with some great players.
The difference of great players is at a certain point in a match they raise their level of play and maintain it. Lesser players play great for a set, but then less.
We wanted Peyton to have a chance to win another Super Bowl. We have a chance to honor him like we did other players that came back. He's one of the greatest players. In the end. you look for a great football game, and that's what you hope for.
I always liked to be fairly simple because you could get more players ready to play quickly. If you lose players to free agency, injuries, etc., it is easier to get young players ready to play in a less complex system.
There were great players at United, and I just didn't have the chance to play, which was fair. It was difficult getting into the team, that's all.
It's a wonderful feeling that I get a chance to play with some of the best players in the world.
It's just something about great players when they play in certain arenas or against other great players. They elevate their play. LeBron is one of those guys. He feels the moment. He understands the moment.
I try to maintain an even tempo in all the games. Sometimes you play well and sometimes you get out. When you get out, you feel it is a wrong shot. Most players in tough situations play shots that could be out, but over time you refine that and give yourself the best chance of performing, the more you play in such situations.
As a professional, you want to get as much as you can out of your career, play at the top level, and win trophies. Playing with top players at Manchester City, I've got a great chance of doing that, and I just want to keep improving.
I feel great that I've been given a chance in the golden years of my life. To me, it's the last battle, and I've been given a chance to get stuck in some good armament, some good power, and there's a chance that now I can finish off my working years with my head held high.
The chance to own a home; chance to own an education; chance to get access to capital. This is the real civil rights battle of the twenty-first century.
One cannot deny that if a person has the energy to get you interested and excited, then that is half the battle won, like all the great leaders had this quality.
