The archetypal No. 10 is a skillful player who is more interested in being in possession than tracking to get the ball back.
I know that I can play in the middle, on the right, or up front.
People say that Rooney could have been like Lionel Messi, a more prolific goalscorer who dribbles past opponents more. But they are different characters. You will never see Messi snapping around the heels of an opponent to win the ball back deep in his own half. Wayne does that all the time, and sometimes that enthusiasm will count against him.
I have long played No. 10.
I know the importance of the number 10. In Brazil, the one who wears 10 constructs the attacks.
I believe Philippe Coutinho is a player who would totally fit in Barcelona.
With Bayern, we want a lot of ball possession and to control the play, so I operate sometimes like the 11th outfield player. Thus I am included a lot into the build-up play and have a lot of touches of the ball.
Growing up I've been playing as an attacking midfielder, more central in the midfield. I wouldn't say if I'm most comfortable there but that's where I grew up playing.
Mario Gotze is a great player, but one of my favourites is Marco Reus, who is a fantastic player, and one of the very best.
Eden Hazard is a great player. He has magic
Wazza, when he plays behind the striker, he is very dangerous because he has more touches of the ball, and Wazza can create the goal as well and can score.
I like it when I am in the middle; I am closer to the ball. The manager wants me to pass, to make assists, create chances, and I do more because I think the position is more central, and I don't ask all the time for the ball at my feet.
In Henry they had a forward so elusive that he was almost unplayable at his peak
The way Guardiola plays suits me. It enables me to get into space in attacking positions.
My perfect formation would be 4-3-3 with one holding and then the two going forward. I would be one of the ones going forward.
I have been a big admirer of Coutinho, and he can be a very important player for Liverpool and Brazil.
I think when I play No. 10 or as a striker, I am in this position to score more goals, and I can shoot more.
Bernardo Silva is a key player, like Thomas Lemar.
Before I signed for Liverpool, I was playing for Newcastle as a No. 10 - basically, I was always attacking. I didn't have to do much defensive work; I didn't play as the No. 6 or the No. 8.
I like to create chances, to shoot when I play farther forward, but I also like playing deeper, as you have more time on the ball.
Maradona and Messi played in different times and in different positions. Messi is much more a striker, Diego was all over the entire pitch. They are two extraordinary players.
I'd say Dele Alli has got good style.
I'm an attacking midfielder.
I've always liked the No.10 position. You can get on the ball a lot more and attempt to dictate the play a lot more.
Thomas Muller is not the best in the world. But he is the best in what he does
