All of Europe's biggest clubs place the Champions' League as their top priority these days but only one of us can lift the trophy. The domestic league titles are still crucial of course, but I think most players will tell you the Champions' League is the one they want to win most of all.

Jaap Stam

Obviously, you want English players playing in the Champions League against the very best players in Europe.

Kieran Trippier

The Champions League is one of the biggest club stages you can reach and I think for players it is an honour to be part of it. It certainly is for me. You just enjoy being a part of it playing against the best clubs in Europe.

Ilkay Gundogan

It is really nice to play in the Champions League, because we play against the best teams and the best competition in Europe.

Olivier Giroud

Why did I not join one of the top five clubs in Europe? Because I am no longer one of the top five players around, and neither are Inter among the five best clubs.

Wesley Sneijder

The best teams of Europe play in the Champions League.

Pedro

I want to be the top player in the league, and I want to bring my game to another level. I want to play against the opposition's best players-and I want to beat them.

Jarome Iginla

We know how important both competitions are, especially the Champions League since it's such a special competition, but we want to win the league too. We take it game by game - concentrate on our league games, win them and then start thinking about the Champions League.

Casemiro

I believe the Champions League has all that magic because it gathers all the best European teams, and that gives you the feeling of trying to be the best. That's why the Champions League has this special kind of emotion.

Neymar

For clubs, free movement plays a big role in transfers and players' contracts. Players from the E.U. can sign for U.K. clubs without needing a visa or special work permit, making it quicker and easier to secure top talent from across Europe to come and play in our leagues.

Karren Brady

Man City are a top team, but there are a lot of top teams in this division because the Premier League is the best league in Europe.

Matteo Guendouzi

I think I must play how I can, that's all. And if I play my best I'll be happy. It doesn't matter because NHL is the best league in the world and we have great players so whoever the coach puts me with is the best. The coach knows best.

Alexander Ovechkin

The best teams in Europe play in the Champions League, and when you face them, sometimes you win, sometimes you lose.

Edinson Cavani

The Champions League is the one thing missing from my career. When I look at the history of the competition and the people that have taken part, the top, top players have all won it. For many, it is why they have been regarded as top players.

Eden Hazard

You look at the best players in the league, the best players at quarterback - I mean Drew Brees, Peyton Manning, the top names - none of those guys are throwing it through a brick wall. They'll have touch.
