I am obviously a striker who likes to score a lot of goals and have done that in every team I have been with.
I like to play as a striker or secondary striker.
I've played as a striker all my life. To play on the right or the left is always difficult.
I'm a striker. I feel I can have my greatest impact there because I'm free to roam around the pitch, take players on, have shots and create chances.
I have to stay in front to try and create chances and be in the right place in the box.
Why shouldn't Harry Kane take corners? If he happens to be the best striker of a ball in the team and gives you the best delivery, why shouldn't he do it?
As kids we'd be forever shooting at dad and I started as a striker, but I eventually became a pivote, the position I like most and best suits my characteristics.
I like to play attacking football, but I think the big difference is that we expect a lot more from our strikers, to do more pressing and to keep compact. We like to play a high line defensively and press the ball.
As a kid, I mostly played as a No 10. When I was really young, I played as a striker. But I grew a lot when I was older, and when I was 15, 16, I had a big growth, and so I changed a little bit and became slower.
Robert Lewandowski is a player who plays in front of the opposing goal, especially with his back to the opponent. He is always attacked, and this is one of the big strength of a striker who plays in this position.
There's no point playing up front just because you want to be the one who scores the goals. Make sure you have a knack for it.
Obviously when you're a striker you need to score. The manager's not going to just play you if you're not scoring.
In my time at Milan, the club played with a 4-3-1-2 formation, and I was the player behind the two strikers. At Real, I play behind three. There is a greater defensive obligation, but I try to work around the area.
I had not so much talent. I was a striker who could score, but running was not my main goal.
When teams play good football, it tends to create chances for the striker.
I am a striker, a goalscorer. That is my art.
Strikers are expected to score, and I have two goals in eight games.
Balotelli can play as a striker, as a winger.
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.
To be a striker you need to be in good shape.
I think a lot of people write off strikers like me, the true number 9 who hangs out at the top of the box. I mean, even I wanted to be a player like Romario as a kid.
As a goal scorer, my focus is always on converting my chances and being clinical in the box. That's my No. 1 priority.
I've always been working hard on my speed for the last few years. Obviously I'm not slow, but as a striker, the more speed you have, the better you are.
I'll play anywhere for Arsenal, but hopefully, given my chance up front, I can do something, because I've always been more of a striker than a winger, and I think I could show a bit more up front.
I'm a striker. That's what I enjoy doing. And any chance to display that, I'm happy.
