A Quote by Tom Cairney

The play-offs are a great occasion to be involved in; the semi-finals were amazing. When you're in it it's special and you do enjoy it but if you are in it, you have to win it. It's a lot of pressure.

A lot of teams who go on to win trophies lose in quarter-finals or semi-finals first.

Gareth Southgate

To play at Stamford Bridge for Brazil would be great. To play for the national team is already special but to do it here would be a very special occasion.

Oscar

You want to be challenging for titles and in semi-finals and finals. Everyone is excited by that.

John McGinn

For a young player like me, it is good to play for a club that can get to the semi-finals because one of the reasons I play football is for these big games.

Eden Hazard

When you play for Barcelona, there is always pressure to win - you play for something special. It's the same when you player for Tottenham; the names are not important.

Mauricio Pochettino

Everyone loves playing in semi-finals and finals.

Ernesto Valverde

Finishing second and getting in the Champions' League quarter-finals or semi-finals is fine, but at the end of the day you need to take some silverware.

Gianluca Vialli

If you look at Arsenal today, I really enjoy watching them play - they play some really good football - but that is not enough to win football matches or to win competitions. But in our time, we were winning, and we had the strength to not play well but somehow manage to win the game 1-0.

Patrick Vieira

I played with a lot of great players before. They're all the same. They take a lot of responsibility for their own play, put a lot of pressure on themselves to perform and to play well.

Mark Messier

Consequently, I won just about everything I set out to win, everything bar the World Cup, of course. But even now, I don't regret that, because I was part of a team which twice reached the semi-finals.

Michel Patini

I've seen a lot of friends who have a lot of great projects, whether it's a script or a play or whatever, and it is a great project and they have great people involved, and they can't make it.

Philip Seymour Hoffman

Success breeds success and the more you are around a healthy and thriving athletics team, the more the people who only think they can make semi-finals will be inspired to want to aim for finals and go for medals.

Denise Lewis

Don't save something for a special occasion. Every day of your life is a special occasion.

Thomas S. Monson

There is nothing wrong with special occasion foods, as long as every day is not a special occasion.

Michael Pollan

I'd much rather have that pressure than be at the end of the field and no one expecting you to win. That's the kind of pressure that you've got to enjoy and love.
