The No 10 shirt? Yes, I understand what it means in Brazil. The icon number. Yes, it's important. It is the number given to a creative player, and I am happy to have that responsibility, but it is not your shirt number that defines you: it is what you do with a football.

Philippe Coutinho

I'm a person, and everybody wants to be an all-star. Nobody wants to just be a role-player. I've thought about it. But the number one goal is to keep winning, so I'm more focused on that than being an all-star, honestly.

Bam Adebayo

I should be flexible enough to play in a number of roles, so I am a more attractive player to the team and can contribute even more.

Shinji Kagawa

The only reason people are saying I'm the number-one player is because I'm with the number-one team.

Moses Malone

I'm not a star. I am a football player, a team player.

Raul

I love being an All-Star and continue to want to be an All-Star because that just shows you my talent and who I am. But I've always been a team player.

Kyle Lowry

If you're fixing a game, you're making calls up against star players to get that star player to the bench so that team is at a major disadvantage.

Tim Donaghy

...the last player I truly idolize... No other footballer is more worthy of the number 10 shirt than him. (on Maradona)

Hristo Stoichkov

I don't like it when a player says, 'I like freedom; I want to play for myself.' Because the player has to understand he is part of a team with 10 other players. If everyone wants to be a jazz musician, it will be chaos. They will not be a team, and nothing will be possible.

Pep Guardiola

The number one ranked team is playing the number 10 ranked team. That's the reality.

Dav Whatmore

Would I have been a great basketball player? No. But I think I would've been a good basketball player, one of those grinders getting eight to 10 rebounds. I would've been like Kobe and been in the gym five to seven hours a day and never missed a 10-foot jump shot. I would've been a great role player for a team.

Tony Gonzalez

Of course team spirit and team's strategy matters more than anything else as far as the team is concerned. As far as I am concerned, if the presence of one player is affecting the morale or the spirit of the team, then we might as well rest that player for a while.

Wasim Akram

When I was a kid, my big hero was the number 10 of Flamengo and not the number 10 of Santos. His name was Dida. We didn't have much knowledge about the championship in Sao Paolo or in the south of Brazil. We just knew about the championship in Rio because I am from there. But Pele played for the national team and was a hero.

Zico

My thing is, when Barkley played basketball, he didn't practice, he wasn't a leader, he wasn't this or that, he just had natural talent so he got chosen to the Dream Team, All Star team because he had the talent and he was the franchise player on the team.

Charles Oakley

Responsibility makes a player better. I was made the captain of Maharashtra senior team when I was 16 or 17. I know how to take the team forward. I had been through the responsibilities.

Smriti Mandhana

Every single player has to take responsibility for what they do. Look at the Manchester United team that won the Champions League in 2008, they didn't have a 'leader' like Roy Keane any more.

Philipp Lahm
