A Quote by Gordon Taylor

Manchester United and Liverpool have been bought with huge leverage, and we've got Roman Abramovich at Chelsea who can turn his loans into shares. It is really important for the Premier League to ask itself: if a club is being bought on such a mountain of debt, isn't that a possible recipe for disaster for the future?

The Premier League is a very strong league. Chelsea, Manchester City, Arsenal, and Liverpool all have a high quality. But those who know me also know that I always want to win titles. And I think that Manchester United are a club which can win titles.

Bastian Schweinsteiger

I want to aspire to titles. Liverpool will always be a big club, but we are not at the level of Manchester United, Manchester City, Chelsea, or Arsenal.

Pepe Reina

Yes, Manchester United are the best team in England, but you have to ask how good has the Premier League been since I left? If I was at a top club in England I think the title race might have been a lot closer this year.

Jose Mourinho

The Premier club in the Premier League - that is Manchester United!

Martin Tyler

At a club like Liverpool, you have to win everything possible, and you have to play for both - the Premier League and the Champions League.

Georginio Wijnaldum

With Chelsea, the job was this: move up to the top, get into Europe. And I did that - fourth place in the Premier League and then into the Champions League, the season before Abramovich and all the money arrived.

Claudio Ranieri

The Premier League is the best competition in the world, and it's not easy to win a league with great teams like Man United, Chelsea, Liverpool, Man City, and Arsenal as rivals.

Luka Modric

I've scored as many goals for Manchester United in the Premier League as for Chelsea, but in something like 30 games less.

Juan Mata

I have been at Chelsea for a lot of years. I have played in the Premier League, the Champions League, it is a kid's dream to play for Chelsea. I have moved on, who knows I might one day go back to Chelsea.

Patrick van Aanholt

I watch the Premier League every weekend. I think it's fantastic. One thing you notice is that the teams considered small are capable of surprising the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United and City.

Roberto Carlos

Of course I miss playing for Manchester United. I played there for six years and that’s a long time. I am still interested in watching Manchester United and, you never know, maybe in the future I could return to play there. It’s always possible. I want to fulfil my contract here but, in the future, only God knows. I will not say I am not happy here at Real Madrid. I am really happy and everyone knows this is my club but, of course, I miss Manchester United, the boss, the players, because I left family there.

Cristiano Ronaldo

Chelsea is a top club, and I have many friends there, but you cannot turn down the chance to join Manchester United.

Juan Mata

I always ask Paul Pogba about Manchester United. I think they are a huge club with a really good infrastructure.

Antoine Griezmann

Ronaldo has nothing to prove to anyone, he has proved his talent by being the top scorer in England. He has proved it by winning the Premier League, by winning the Champions League, with Manchester United.

Eusebio

Banks were once places to hold money and were very careful in lending to finance families as they built a future - bought homes, bought cars, took out student loans.
