“I started out as a defender. I played as a full-back, and then I moved...” — Roberto Firmino Quote

“I started out as a defender. I played as a full-back, and then I moved into the centre. I played defence right the way through until the Under-18s. Honestly!”

“When I was younger, I played as a right-back. I also played as a central defender, but I realised that I could dominate the ball quite calmly, so I started playing further forward in front of the back four.”

“It's hard to be as good as Ronaldinho and Ronaldo were, but we're going to do our best, both myself and Philippe Coutinho, to get close to them and be the best players we can be for the Brazilian national team.”

“We have 35 different criteria when deciding on the location of a data centre. Tax is one of them.”

“In the past, the U.S. was the centre of the world, where everything was happening. I think my stories have always sought to question this, maybe even criticise it.”

“We've got to take confrontation out of the centre of politics. With fighting, no one wins; with dialogue, everyone wins.”
