We play sometimes against teams with more individual quality than us, better players, bigger budgets, whatever, but we try to play our football. We don't try to change too much in our philosophy, in our model.

Marco Silva

For us it's better to think of our opponents as idiots. It's easier to play hard against someone you don't like than it is to play against a friend.

Karch Kiraly

Sometimes it is difficult to play against teams who just drop back and try to defend.

Sadio Mane

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

We try to play football; don't forget it, right. My teams always in my career try to play football. I cannot control the other circumstances.

Pep Guardiola

I liked to play against all the teams in the National Football League or the American Football League, because they were always a challenge.

Jim Otto

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

Sadio Mane

You can feel the same thing in football or soccer - that for the best teams in Spain and England, for instance, the public... they're not really going to cheer at all when they play against bad teams unless they do something spectacular. Even if they're winning by a few goals they'll probably just say, "nah." That's normal and they're not excited about it.

Magnus Carlsen

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

I always say all the time that's what the NBA is all about - getting to play against the best guys and opportunities to redeem yourself against teams that beat you.

Avery Bradley

If we play defense the way we're supposed to and we play defense the way we do here in practice, we should have no problems against most of the teams in the league, and other teams, it'll be a great fight.

Karl-Anthony Towns

My job was to play football the last 16 games and do my part, and then in the offseason, really, it's just sit back and let the team or other teams let you know that they want you.

Kirk Cousins

Manchester United are always a team that try to play football, try to play football from the back.

Ronald Koeman

Every season is so much different and you go through your ups and downs, you figure your team out, you get to play against great teams. Some of the best competition there's been since I've been in the league. Just every night, night in and night out we get to play against the top guys, the top teams. It's a lot of fun.

Blake Griffin

The Spanish league has better individual players than the German league. However, in Germany, there are more teams that are uncomfortable to play against because they are more aggressive than teams in Spain.
