There's a teacher at the Renzo Gracie Academy in New York named John Danaher. He's leading this whole group of fighters named the Danaher Death Squad, and they're revolutionizing how that world works. I actually went and signed up for classes mostly because, man, if there's innovation like that happening in New York, I want to be around it.

Chris Gethard

Nowadays, people always say, how come he's doing such young shows? But they never mention The Mod Squad. I was very proud of that show. It's the first time an African-American guy kissed a white girl.

We want to progress and ultimately win something. You can't do that with 11, 12 or 13 players, you need a squad.

Adam Lallana

I'm confident enough in my own ability and what I bring to the squad.

Adam Lallana

Being a part of the practice squad was a tough year for me.

Adam Thielen

In the NFL, there's never really that moment where you're like, Hey, I made the team. Or: Hey, you made the practice squad. You just kind of show up the next day and go to work. Nobody really says anything. You just kind of go to work.

It's unbelievable what one squadron of twelve aircraft did to tip the balance.

Adolf Galland

But when I was selected, after my very first tour of squadron duty, to become one of the youngest candidates for the test pilot school, I began to realize, maybe you are a little bit better.

Alan Shepard

I'm the leading scorer in the cup, and that's lovely, but don't forget this is also a great moment for the whole squad, when the two things coincide you can't ask for more.

Alessandro Del Piero

You are all mates off the pitch, but on it, you are all competing for places. I think that only makes a healthier squad - more players fighting for positions can only mean everyone has got to step their game up.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

Ever since I've been at Arsenal, we've had numerous quality players, and the whole squad had been very strong. It just seemed that in the big games we came up short sometimes, and you wonder why.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

I always hear commentators talking about squads that have been around and that have won things; they always mention the experience of winning and knowing what it takes to win. They have only got that through winning trophies and winning competitions.

Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain

When I was in the GB Women's football team at the 2012 Olympics, it was obvious who was in the first XI and who was making up the numbers. Kelly Smith was going to be first-choice striker no matter what, and the other forwards in the squad mentally checked out as a result.

Alex Scott

I am determined to play for Arsenal and be in the squad of Unai Emery.

Alexandre Lacazette

All I want is to be just another member of the squad and fight for a place in the side.

Alvaro Morata

I have always said that it is fundamental to have a strong core of Italian players in a club squad. At AC Milan, we had that and we won. The same at Juventus.

Andrea Pirlo

I think it's hard for one coach to do all the formats all the time, and there are a limited number of coaches who have done the hard yards already. You can have head and assistant coaches for each squad.

Andrew Strauss

Only one player is not important. The most important thing is the squad, and it's important to be together. You can't just lose it over one player.

Antonio Conte

It is very difficult in the transfer market for the teams that need to improve their squads.

Antonio Conte

If you trust in an idea of football, and you trust in the team, it's important to have a squad with good balance.

Antonio Conte

When I was really little, I was on a Pop Warner squad. I did it for a year. My dad was a Pop Warner football coach. I did it because my best friend was also on this cheer squad, and of course I looked up to my sister who was a cheerleader, so I wanted to cheer.
