Quote by Sheldon Solomon

“If we were immortal, then life would be meaningless, because nothing would be of consequence. Certainly one way of taking the edge off the prospect of our inevitable demise is to ponder how much more horrendous it would be if we persisted in perpetuity. And yet, if you told me I had X number of days left to live, I would lobby for X plus one.”

“There are loads of players I could name who are 16-16 looked like world beaters but then at 21-22 they are subs in non-league.

Game-changing moments, can you be the guy that sits there and takes the responsibility. And the great players do.”
