Xavi was a big idol in my youth because he was smart in his head. He was not the biggest player because of his body length, but he was one of the greatest players because he was always smart in his mind. He had really good technique.

Joshua Kimmich

An American is a guy, a rich guy with a family, a decent guy with a family with as many kids as he likes, doing what he wants, working with people that he likes, and enjoying himself to his very old age.

Obviously Diego likes to play a bit further forward than me and then you have got Eden who is a player that likes to come inside and dribble, and his final pass is fantastic.

Pedro

It is a pleasure to be compared to a player like Xavi.

Marco Verratti

Xavi has won the Champions League three times, the European Championship twice and the World Cup. He's a real football player, a man who focuses on his football, hard work and training instead of the glamour, and that is why he has stayed at such a high level for so long.

Marco van Basten

Messi has a unique talent, he plays alongside quality players like Xavi and Andres Iniesta. Cristiano is also a great player.

Whoever likes football always likes to see the best player on the pitch.

Neymar

Jordan Henderson is a player who likes to do his business in the middle of the park.

Dembele likes to take players on. He's a dribbler and a power player who likes to break into space; he has the ability to do this. He has a lot of virtues.

Ernesto Valverde

I don't think you ever come into the season and talk, 'Super Bowl, Super Bowl, Super Bowl.' It's about improving and winning games along the way as you improve.

Devin McCourty

Knowing his coach likes him is more important to a player than anything else. To me, it was important to be able to chew out a player for screwing up and for him to accept it because he knew I liked him anyway.

John Madden

The quality of a person's character can be known partly by the attitude of his ally who likes him TRULY and, probably full, by understanding who he likes REALLY as his buddy with his behavior.

Anuj

Knowing his coach likes him is more important to a player than anything else.

John Madden

If I stay working with Pep Guardiola, if he wants me, he's just going to be a lucky man because I will be really hungry. I am the type of player for his philosophy and the way he likes his team.
