A Quote by Thierry Henry

I can’t think of a striker in the world who has scored so many important goals, never mind a midfielder.

I was a fan of Henk Groot, former striker of Ajax, who scored many goals with his head. I thought, 'I can do that also,' but I couldn't.

Louis van Gaal

I defend and track my runners but, if there's another big asset you need as a midfielder, it's to score goals. I scored goals in the reserves and the youth team but since I've got into the first team I've lost that a little bit.

Scott Parker

My second year in Rome was very good. Back then, a striker was a striker. Strikers scored goals; they didn't defend. Today this is normal, but it wasn't at that time. If you wanted to play my style of football you couldn't have old players or famous players who were unwilling to do the job both ways: attacking and also defending.

Sven-Goran Eriksson

I've scored many goals that I've liked, but I think the best memory I have is the one against Korea in the 2010 World Cup.

Luis Suarez

I am an attacking midfielder, and I have scored goals, but I want to score more and win more.

David Silva

Everyone gets in a bad mood at some point - a striker because there is allegedly a new striker on the way, the same for a midfielder.

Gennaro Gattuso

When my father played in the local team, I always used to go with him to watch him. He played as a striker. He was very good; he used to score a lot of goals. Once, he scored seven goals in one game.

Richarlison

The truth is that I don't have a favourite goal. I remember important goals more than I do favourite goals, like goals in the Champions League where I had the opportunity to have scored in both finals I have played in. Finals in the World Cup or Copa del Rey are the ones that have stayed with me for longer or that I remember more.

Lionel Messi

Had I found the back of the net it would have been a double satisfaction but I've scored many goals and the important thing was for me to play well.

Alessandro Del Piero

During my time at Juve, I didn't score more than 20 goals a year, but I won every title except the Champions League. I've scored 15 or 16 goals, and I've lifted titles, and other strikers have scored 35 and haven't won anything.

Alvaro Morata

I miss scoring lots of goals, but I have always thought that a striker should not be judged just by the amount of goals he scores. The work he does for the team is also important.

Bojan Krkic

I always wanted to score goals, but sometimes I've scored and been terrible and other times I felt I played well and didn't score. I looked at the statsheet the season where I scored 27 goals and I had one assist and was frustrated.

Bradley Wright-Phillips

Like I've said many times before, I'm always more likely to remember goals for their importance rather than if they're beautiful or not. Goals scored in finals, for example.

Lionel Messi

Ronaldinho is better than Cristiano Ronaldo, but neither are as good as Leo Messi. He holds numerous records, such as the most goals scored in a single La Liga season and the most goals scored in a calendar year. I'm more worried about being a good person than being the best football player in the world. He has everything. We must protect him.
