A Quote by Michael Laudrup

Michu and Van Persie are similar. They look alike. They are both tall, left-footed players. They are not fast, but they know when to make the runs.

For a 20 year old the gap from Holland to England is massive. That's a fact. Not all players are able to settle in directly from day one. I remember even Van Persie needed two, three years but he became Van Persie.

Ryan Babel

Robin van Persie and Wayne Rooney are both outstanding players.

Patrice Evra

I look for players who do not just score goals but provide an attacking point, linking with other players and able to see the third man as well. Van Persie is one of the best strikers around at that.

Louis van Gaal

It's special - when you start playing, you are aware of names like Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie; you have seen them playing and know what great players they are. So it's fantastic to have a chance to line up with them. I'm really pleased with how that understanding has started off.

Angel Di Maria

My speed as a tall guy is deceptive. You look at me and I might not look fast, but when I go out and play, people are left scratching their heads like 'Where did that come from?'

Shaun Livingston

I know Robin van Persie very well and he is a great person and I have a lot of contact with him over the phone and text messages.

Ryan Babel

There's a little triangle - five left-footed players.

Ron Atkinson

I had a fear of being too tall because my dad is very tall, and both my sisters are very tall. And they're drop-dead gorgeous, but I just didn't know if I, as Storm, wanted to be 6 feet tall, 'cause I feel like that's pretty tall.

Storm Reid

I can play with everyone, also with Robin van Persie.

Klaas-Jan Huntelaar

Robin Van Persie is a sensational striker and one of the best in Europe.

Shinji Kagawa

There is no club in Europe that wouldn't want Van Persie at centre-forward.

David Moyes

Elliott's bigger, stronger, maybe even a step faster than Emmitt Smith, but they're both very similar. I think, you know, Ezekiel Elliott is a more powerful runner. He runs over people. Both of 'em can make people miss, so you don't really get a big shot on 'em. But Elliott will take on tacklers, whereas, you know, Emmitt never did this.

Jimmy Johnson

I joined Arsenal to play with Robin van persie - not replace him

Olivier Giroud

I've never understood this puritanical idea that feminism has to be a cult. You know, we all have to think alike or dress alike or have a similar ideology.

Naomi Wolf

Different players play you different ways. Some players might be slow-footed so they got to backup. Some players might push you up. You've got to have a go-to that's a mix for both of them.

Bam Adebayo

I think tennis is going towards the direction of powerful, hard hitters, and that's what us tall people are. We are trying to play very aggressive; we're trying to make a lot of winners, and, I mean, I don't know. That's what tall players kind of do.
