Right backs now should be the highest paid players in every team! Strikers just have to score. Midfielders, they pass. Goalkeepers make saves. Full backs have to mark, cover centre backs and midfield, get forward and cross, take shots and provide the link to strikers.

Cafu

Porto prepared me really well and this didn't go unnoticed in Spain, as before I went to Real Madrid the club were known as a graveyard for centre-backs. They had amazing centre-backs that had failed there.

Pepe

Centre-backs usually get criticised for clearing the ball long, but it's easier doing this than risking a pass. If you lose the ball at the back, it's almost a goal. Most centre-backs don't risk this kind of game, depending on the holding midfielder in front.

Thiago Silva

Obviously, teams are passing a lot more, and there are rules that... allow the offense to be more explosive, so you want to have as many defensive players and defensive playmakers and defensive backs that you can.

Nnamdi Asomugha

When you make a mistake, and the team is not doing well in defence, then the centre-backs and the 'keeper suffer more than the others.

Rafael Benitez

We got government off the backs of the people of India, particularly off the backs of India's entrepreneurs. We introduced more competition, both internal competition and external competition. We simplified and rationalized the tax system. We made risk-taking much more attractive.

Manmohan Singh

You have to use your mind n the NFL. Every player is smarter. Defensive backs bluff and disguise coverages to try to fool you.

Chad Ochocinco

If I watch big games like the Champions League on TV then I'm definitely watching what different centre-backs are doing in certain situations.

Virgil van Dijk

At fullback you have a little bit more defensive responsibility. You have to help out with your center backs a little bit more. As a wing back, you can be a little bit more aggressive with getting forward.

DeAndre Yedlin

You have to be physical. If you are not, defensive backs will try to pick on you.

Calvin Johnson

I feel like I know what defensive backs are going to do before they do it.

Amari Cooper

I remember players talking to Willie Brown in my presence. Receivers asking, 'Is this who you drafted? I can't believe this is who you drafted.' I was hearing it from my defensive backs: 'Man, you got a long way to go.'

Nnamdi Asomugha

Sin is more than turning our backs on God - it is turning our backs on life! Immorality is much more than adultery and dishonesty: it is living drab, colorless, dreary, stale, unimaginative lives.
