A Quote by Fabio Cannavaro

I didn't start out wanting to be a defender. Who would want to be in the back-line after having watched striker Paolo Rossi score six goals in the 1982 World Cup?

Of course a striker wants to score as much as possible. It's nice scoring goals. Goals are like an addiction: when you score, you want to keep doing more and more.

Aleksandar Mitrovic

Thierry is the best striker in the world. By far he's the best in the world. Thierry doesn't just score goals. Even when he's not having a good day he can make an important pass. He is a strong character. If things go wrong, he bounces straight back. His effect on the club is very big.

Patrick Vieira

I am a striker, and people expect strikers to score goals. But I don't see myself as a striker.

Dimitar Berbatov

Two or three years ago, every game I want to score. And after I score a goal I have a spark and I'm so happy I want more. Now I'mkind of different. I'm not saying I lost my spark - I still have it - but I don't chase the goal as much as I used to. I'm playing for the team andI still know I can score, but it's different than two or three years back.Look at great teams like Detroit a couple of years ago; they winthe Stanley Cup and guys only score 25 goals, nobody has a really big season. You have to play defense, that's how you win.

Peter Bondra

I think I want to become more rounded, I want to keep honing my skills and fine-tuning the qualities that I have. And scoring more goals - every striker wants to score more goals.

Dominic Calvert-Lewin

I want to score goals. Everyone says that's the only part of my game that's missing. Before I was a pro I used to score goals for fun. I want to bring that back into my game.

Yannick Bolasie

I'm a very technical player, a striker who moves around the field a lot. I'm technical, I score lots of goals, and I like to score as many goals as possible. They are my best qualities. I also header the ball very well.

Radamel Falcao

I'm an out-and-out striker. It's my job to hold the ball up, to get in the box and to score goals. And, yes, I keep count.

Glenn Murray

After working with my father for two years, we started Candie's, a line of imported shoes from Italy. Then in 1982 I set out to start my own business.

Kenneth Cole

As a striker, people look at the goals you score. But for me, my game is more than just about goals, it is how you link with other players.

Dimitar Berbatov

With a line of six in the defence and then three in front of that, it's not always easy to find the spaces to score the goals.

Andre Schurrle

I don't pick tournaments to score or rivals or other teams to score against. I'm a striker: every game I play, I want to score.

Diego Costa

I'm a striker; my job is to score goals.

Alvaro Morata

We got to stop people. We go ahead and we score 100 points every night, but we give up more. Our whole thing was, we know we can score, and we have to start having some kind of fun on the defensive end. Everybody want to play offense. Not too many people want to play defense. Defense is ego, pride, and that's the way we've been coming out, just taking the challenge. Man-on-man first, and having each other's back when a guy gets beat.
