Not everybody will get a chance to play in this league. You know, there's a transition rate of about 300 guys a year, that come into the league and leave the league. So the average career expectancy is a little bit under four years, so that doesn't mean you're gonna play forever.
I actually spoke to all the national team players who play in the Premier League, asking about what the league is like and the style of play. It's one thing watching it on the TV, but being involved in it every day is another thing.
I thought if I could play 10 years in the league, it would be a great career more than I could ever hope for in my wildest dreams.
You never know who will win and I think that is the great thing about this league (as a player) because it gives you a lot of hope that this could be your year.
I wish I could play little league now. I'd be way better than before.
I had great, great times as a Little League coach. People were talking about me quitting acting, and they would say, What about your creative juices?

The great thing about this jungle of ours is that anyone of you could grow up to be Lord of the apes.
I told myself coming into the league that if I could play for six or seven years, that would have been a great career.
I found it was my good fortune to somehow be able to work in these forms that I loved when I was a kid. I love movies and I could write screenplays. I love theater and I could write plays. I mean, they would be my own, I could never write what was used to be called the well-made play. But my first play, "Little Murders," turned out to be a great success and a great influence on plays at that time.
For all that Michael Jordan could run, jump and entertain, he is best known for one thing: He won. If you want to be a great player in this league, you have to focus on one thing - the bottom line, which is winning.
In the Premier League, you can't play against anyone if you don't play at a high pace.
I'm not all about winning rushing titles, or 'Me, Me, Me,' but I do believe that I want to be a great player in this league, and I want to go down as one of the best to play in this league, and that's something you got to do.
When I was little, I always watched the Premier League with my brother. It was, it is, very attractive: a nice football to play, one that could fit my characteristics and personality well.
It is a great challenge to be playing against the best players in the world, and I always wanted to play in the Premier League and be a part of this league.
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.
It took me a little bit of time in the Premier League. I came back from an ACL and got one goal in I think six months at Crystal Palace. It wasn't great but I got to grips with the Premier League, started to understand what it's about because it's very different to the lower leagues.
