Nowadays, as soon as a striker scores three goals, everyone starts asking him about it.
I miss scoring lots of goals, but I have always thought that a striker should not be judged just by the amount of goals he scores. The work he does for the team is also important.
A striker scores goals, but the goalkeepers saves them, the defenders close chances down, and all the credit is shared out.
You can have a striker who scores 50 goals in one season but if you win nothing it means nothing.
He scores goals, assists, and he's got everything that you'd ask for in a striker. We, as African players, are all proud of what Didier achieved as a player. The way he holds himself is unbelievable.
I have always said that a striker scores a goal but not every goal is scored by a striker. A goalkeeper can make a mistake which is a goal, but every goal still goes past him and you have to accept that.
At first sight, Shane Long is just a short striker, but he's good in the air; he's quick, very dangerous, has good feet, and scores goals.
When my father played in the local team, I always used to go with him to watch him. He played as a striker. He was very good; he used to score a lot of goals. Once, he scored seven goals in one game.
Nowadays men cannot love seven night but they must have all their desires: that love may not endure by reason; for where they be soon accorded and hasty, heat soon it cooleth. Right so fareth love nowadays, soon hot soon cold: this is no stability. But the old love was not so.
Harry Kane is a typical striker. He scores in every single game. I think he has great qualities. I like him a lot.
I am a striker, and people expect strikers to score goals. But I don't see myself as a striker.
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.
OK - we like to say how a striker creates space and influences matches in other ways, but let's not pretend: at the end of the season, the best striker everyone talks about is the top scorer.
Learning from Martin Sorrell will be perfect. I won't leave him alone, I'll be asking him questions the whole day, just like a striker. He's going to have to tell me everything.
I still believe I can be a striker but, if you want to be a striker, you have to think more about yourself and that's why you are a striker.
They are different footballers. For me, Cristiano has more points in his favour because he heads the ball well, he is stronger and he scores goals. Messi has quality, dribbles and scores goals. For a coach, I think Cristiano is better because he is more complete.
I have never seen a talent like Ronaldo. He always scores, scores, scores. The first game he played for Milan, Sienna away, I said to him, 'I can't put you on the pitch. You are 100kg.' 'Mister,' he said, 'don't worry, I will score.' I put him in, and he scored twice.
