Some soccer quotes...

I'd forgotten I had these...

The new West Stand casts a giant shadow over the entire pitch, even on a sunny day.

CHRIS JONES, Evening Standard

What will you do when you leave football, Jack - will you stay in football?

STUART HALL, Radio 5 Live

Unfortunately, we keep kicking ourselves in the foot.

RAY WILKINS, BBC1

I've got a gut feeling in my stomach...

ALAN SUGAR, BBC1

I would not say he [David Ginola] is the best left winger in the Premiership, but there are none better.

RON AKTINSON, Carling FA Premiership WWW Page

Johnson has revelled in the 'hole' behind Dwight Yorke...

An inch or two either side of the post and that would have been a goal.

DAVE BASSETT, Sky Sports

Both sides have scored a couple of goals, and both sides have conceded a couple of goals.

PETER WITHE, Radio 5 Live

You don't score 64 goals in 86 games at the highest level without being able to score goals.

ALAN GREEN, Radio 5 Live

What's it like being in Bethlehem, the place where Christmas began? I suppose it's like seeing Ian Wright at Arsenal....

SIMON FANSHAWE, Talk Radio

And we all know that in football if you stand still you go backwards...

PETER REID, Tyne Tees Sport Special

I was saying the other day, how often the most vulnerable area for goalies is between their legs...

ANDY GRAY, Sky Sport

The lad got over-excited when he saw the whites of the goalpost's eyes.

STEVE COPPELL, Radio 5 Live

They [Rosenborg] have won 66 games, and they've scored in all of them.

BRIAN MOORE, ITV

If you can't stand the heat in the dressing-room, get out of the kitchen.

TERRY VENABLES, Capital Gold

The lads really ran their socks into the ground.

ALEX FERGUSON

He [Brian Laudrup] wasn't just facing one defender - he was facing one at the front and one at the back as well.

TREVOR STEVEN, STV

It's now 1-1, an exact reversal of the score on Saturday.

Radio 5 Live

...but Arsenal are quick to credit Bergkamp with laying on 75% of their nine goals.

TONY GUBBA, BBC Match of the Day

...an excellent player, but he [Ian Wright] does have a black side.

GARY LINEKER, BBC

We say 'educated left foot'... of course, there are many players with
educated right foots.

RON JONES, Radio 5 Live

That's twice now he [Terry Phelan] has got between himself and the goal.

BRIAN MARWOOD, Radio 5 Live

Mark Hughes at his very best: he loves to feel people right behind him...

KEVIN KEEGAN

Football today, it's like a game of chess. It's all about money.

NEWCASTLE UNITED FAN, Radio 5 Live

Gary always weighed up his options, especially when he had no choice.

KEVIN KEEGAN, Radio 5 Live

We threw our dice into the ring and turned up trumps.

BRUCE RIOCH, ITV

And I suppose they [Spurs] are nearer to being out of the FA Cup now than any other time since the first half of this season, when they weren't ever in it anyway.

JOHN MOTSON, BBC

... and he crosses the line with the ball almost mesmerically tied to his foot with a ball of string...

IAN DARKE, Radio 5
