Quote examples
John Stones
English Athlete
I've always liked taking the ball out of defence and I will carry on doing that but at the end of the day I'm a defender, and that's what I want to be known as - a defender, getting in the blocks and the headers that people don't recognise I do, the dirty stuff that every defender should do and should be good at.
Quote examples
Roberto Carlos
Brazilian Footballer
When you play for a club like Madrid, you always have to stay in the present, because everything is so intense: the sprints, the headers, the tackles, the training sessions, the away trips, the hotels. The victories and the defeats.
Quote examples
Radamel Falcao
Colombian Athlete
I'm a very technical player, a striker who moves around the field a lot. I'm technical, I score lots of goals, and I like to score as many goals as possible. They are my best qualities. I also header the ball very well.
Quote examples
David Moyes
Scottish Coach
With Marouane's hair, I actually wondered if it might take a bit of the pace off the ball when he went up for a header. But I soon realised it was part of his personality. Part of who he is.
Quote examples
Harry Kane
English Athlete
I always back myself as a finisher, but I always practise it as well. Every type of finish: left foot, right foot, headers, penalties, free kicks.
Quote examples
Steph Houghton
English Athlete
In terms of leading by example. I feel as though that's what my game is. Trying to drive the team forward, win my tackles, win my headers.
Quote examples
Ryan Mason
Maybe bring in sponge balls to learn the technique and gain that experience of actually challenging for a header.
Quote examples
Peter Crouch
English Athlete
I'd hate to be the sort of player who people just regard as being tall and only good for winning headers.
Quote examples
Wilford Brimley
American Actor
I rope steers in team roping events. There's a header and a heeler on a roping team, and I'm the heeler.
Quote examples
Thiago Alcantara
Spanish Athlete
It's just a coincidence that I've scored two headers. I'm not a specialist scoring headed goals.
