Champions League football in the Premier League - you're talking about the top, big, massive clubs, and it's not something I think I'd get linked with.

Chris Coleman

Messi doesn't have to do it in the Premier League to prove himself. The Champions League is the ultimate club competition. If he was in the Premier League, he'd be the best player by some distance.

Gary Lineker

I want to play in the Premier League, the Champions League, and I want to continue playing for England. If I'm going to do that, I have to play for my club and put in good performances for my club because there are other English midfielders who are doing that in the Premier League.

Jack Wilshere

It's nice to be settled and enjoying my football, the new experience, playing in the Champions League and all the things you dream about when you start playing football.

John Stones

I think just playing in the Champions League is a big motivation. When you hear the hymn or the song of the Champions League, it's a big motivation for every player.

Willy Caballero

It's easier to fine tune in club football, and you have the chance to win the Champions League every year.

Manuel Neuer

It's not easy playing against Barcelona in the Champions League. They are a club with a lot of history.

Filipe Luis

I think it's hard to see a club like Arsenal not playing in the Champions League.

Stephan Lichtsteiner

There's a massive difference between playing Under-21 football and being on the bench at Chelsea, and playing every week in a league where you are playing for people's livelihoods and helping to pay their mortgages.

Patrick Bamford

I have 41 Premier League goals. For me the 100 club is massive. That is a massive carrot there to get into that in four years. That is where I'd like to be at the end of my career, 100 Premier League goals and join that elusive club.

Callum Wilson

The closest you are going to get to playing international football is the Champions League.

Robert Green

The Champions League is, in terms of club football, the most prestigious one. And if you don't win it you will never be named one of the greatest teams, no chance.

Ilkay Gundogan

It is very exciting to be playing in the Champions League because it is the dream of every player in the world.

Sadio Mane

There is a magical feeling when the Champions League music sounds at the beginning of each game, it is the biggest club competition and is the trophy that every player wants to have.

Roberto Carlos

But I think the Champions League Final puts a massive pressure on every player and the manager, but we're enjoying the pressure and hopefully we can go there and win it.
