“I don't like to stand there and wait until the ball comes to my feet. ...” — Mousa Dembele Quote

“I don't like to stand there and wait until the ball comes to my feet. I like to take the ball and run with it.”

“Nobody is perfect. Even Lionel Messi or Cristiano Ronaldo can sometimes look like players from League One.”

“Always, against top teams, if you play well, and especially in the Champions League, it's good.”

“I just do my best to put the ball in play and put it in play where no one's going to make a play on it and hopefully drive some runners in.”

“I mark my ball with the same coin every time. It's a Dallas Cowboys ball marker. I'm not superstitious, though. If I lost it, I'd probably just use a quarter.”

“I just keep it simple. Watch the ball and play it on merit.”
