A Quote by Joe Torre

I think there's more of opportunity to win games in the National League than the American League because there are more decisions to make.

Everyone in the world disagrees with me, including some managers, but I think managing in the American League is much more difficult for that very reason (having the designated hitter). In the National League, my situation is dictated for me. If I'm behind in the game, I've got to pinch hit. I've got to take my pitcher out. In the American League, you have to zero in. You have to know exactly when to take them out of there. In the National League, that's done for you.

Jim Leyland

Probably the Liga MX or the American league, there are a higher number of competitive games than in the Spanish league or the English league.

Gerardo Martino

I don't know anyone who likes the American League games better. Maybe some fans do. But if you're not an actual DH, you probably prefer the National League.

Zack Greinke

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

Everybody has a different opinion in this league and nobody is a prophet. I personally don't know who will win the league. I managed 1,600 games so, if Nani knows, he must be 1,600 times more intelligent than I am.

Arsene Wenger

I have to remind Arsene about his team, which used to win the league, that was the dirtiest team in the league. If you cast your mind back to when they were winning the league, they had more seedings-off and bookings than anyone else.

Sam Allardyce

It's the same game. It's baseball. National League, American League. It's baseball. I just come here and try to do my thing. Do my work and help the team to win.

Asdrubal Cabrera

It's why the Premier League is watched so much all over the world: because it has more pace and more physicality than in any other league.

Gareth Barry

That's why it's hardest to win a Premier League instead of a Champions League - because it's over 38 games. You can't play well in every game, but it's about grinding out results.

Andrew Robertson

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.

Toni Kroos

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

What puts you in a different level is if you win the Premier League, and you're capable of challenging every season for the Premier League, and if you play Champions League, and you really believe, and you're a real contender one day to win the Champions League. That's my objective in Tottenham.

Mauricio Pochettino

When people say 'American soccer,' they think of the U.S. national team. But American soccer also includes Major League Soccer, and until we have a league that produces players at the rate other leagues around the world do, I don't believe we'll ever get to where we want to be.

Landon Donovan

Those huckleberries in the National League don't want to do anything that the American League wants to do.

Phil Rizzuto

Most of the games are decided by a small margin. That shows the intensity and the competitiveness of the English league. Everyone knows here the competition is ferocious. It's a bit different than the Portuguese league. But I'm going to try to adapt to this league as quick as possible.
