A Quote by Gianluigi Buffon

When you have the chance to play a Champions League final, you have to win it. — © Gianluigi Buffon
When you have the chance to play a Champions League final, you have to win it.
What puts you in a different level is if you win the Premier League, and you're capable of challenging every season for the Premier League, and if you play Champions League, and you really believe, and you're a real contender one day to win the Champions League. That's my objective in Tottenham.
I knew that was going to be the last chance to play in the Champions League final - I was desperate to win, I put a lot of pressure on myself. Finally I got hold of that cup - it was the defining moment of my career. I got really emotional and nearly fainted on the pitch.
I don't think a lot of players reach a Champions League final. If you look at how many goalkeepers in the league reach a Champions League final, I don't know.
To be honest, I was never expecting to be in a World Cup final, a Euro final, a Champions League final, a Europa League final. I've done much more than I dreamt, and that's incredible.
We know how important both competitions are, especially the Champions League since it's such a special competition, but we want to win the league too. We take it game by game - concentrate on our league games, win them and then start thinking about the Champions League.
I always say it must not be an obsession to win the Champions League. It's a very important title and beautiful to do it. But you must not try to win the Champions League and lose focus on the Premier League.
Of course it would be nice to go to another Champions League final and hopefully win it again one day, but for me, the Premier League is the best trophy to have.
I always win. I think, one season with Lazio, we didn't win anything, but our premier target was to take the Champions League place, and we got into the Champions League.
We prioritise everything. We will always fight for the Champions League. Barca will always be like that - we are very excited - but the way to win the Champions League is to win the league.
A Champions League final is so rare to play.
In Spain, I'd taken Villarreal to league runners-up and the quarter-final and then semi-final of the Champions League.
At a club like Liverpool, you have to win everything possible, and you have to play for both - the Premier League and the Champions League.
If I have no goals, I would retire now. I still have many: to win another league title, to win the Champions League, to win the Copa del Rey. To win the European Championships again.
To be able to compete in a Champions League final, to win it with Real Madrid and to score was incredible and exciting.
My aims have always been to win titles and cups, to qualify for European football and to play in the Europa League or the Champions League.
What I would like most is to play in the Champions League and try to win the Premier League once. Or better - a few times.
