A Quote by Jimmy Bullard

I struggled to get into any sort of team as a kid, but I struggled along and, though it's amazing how long it has actually taken me, I am finally in the Premiership and to play against my old mates from West Ham, the team I supported as a boy, was unbelievable.

I came to Dortmund from a relatively small team and I struggled during my first six months to find my place there. I was a bit shy and, to be honest, I wasn't brave enough do certain things. But thanks to the help of my team-mates, and with the help of Jurgen and his staff, too, I managed to improve.

Ilkay Gundogan

I've always known I could play football. I went to Arsenal and West Ham as a kid, but I took a year out because I wanted to play with my mates and get that competitiveness back. I got that fighting spirit and I never want to lose that.

Jonjo Shelvey

I have struggled to be taken seriously as a female athlete. I have struggled to find my worth outside of winning. I have struggled to accept parts of myself. Now I'm recognizing the beauty in those parts as well as beauty in the times when things didn't go my way.

Lynsey Dyer

I actually had the chance to sign for Newcastle before I went to West Ham; I didn't in the end because they had got rid of their reserve team. There were a few clubs interested but I liked what West Ham had to offer and never regretted signing for them, I loved it straight away.

Michael Carrick

It's a special feeling when you play against your old team. I don't care how you left that team, in a good way or a bad way, you want to get the win.

Zaza Pachulia

'Twas drink made me fall in love, And love made me run into debt, And though I have struggled and struggled and strove, I cannot get out of them yet.

Alexander Brome

And at West Ham no one gives you a puzzled look if you get called up for your national team and players are never asked to play on injections.

Freddie Ljungberg

I speak five languages, which actually makes it easier when you join a new team. You can settle much quicker because you can help team-mates much faster and better. People need to be careful around me, though - I can understand everything.

Petr Cech

People talk about me, and that's good, but a lot of it has been down to how my team-mates have supported me.

Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang

If I'm called up by any England team, I'm willing to go. I'm not going to pull out of any England team. Ask any young kid who wants to play for their national team, and everyone's the same. We're all dying to do it.

Theo Walcott

At West Ham there were a couple of French players and they helped me get used to the team and the club.

Demba Ba

When I was 11 years old, I was playing for the Lierse youth team, and one of the parents from the other team literally tried to stop me from going on the pitch. He was like, 'How old is this kid? Where is his ID? Where is he from?'

Romelu Lukaku

When I joined Newcastle, at the beginning it was difficult. During pre-season, there was no Ramadan and I also didn't score then. So it's a myth. It was about getting into the team, knowing the players better and how they play. My team-mates also have to understand how I play and move.

Demba Ba

I was in the team and then I had COVID and came out, and struggled to get back in.

Matt Doherty

It was amazing to watch him in the darkroom at an advanced age, still get excited when the results were pleasing. He still struggled like we all do in the darkroom and he struggled behind the camera, and when he had a success he was beaming.

John Sexton

It's been amazing to me every day just putting on that Team U.S.A. gear. That's the team that I used to watch as a kid on NBA TV and now I'm a part of it! It doesn't get much cooler than that.
