Zitat des Tages von Tim Howard:

Sir Alex Ferguson is one of the best managers in football history.

I'm a gym rat; I love my hour-long afternoon sessions with my trainer.

Tim Howard

I don't complain when it's sunny.

Manchester United could have any goalkeeper in the world. I was a 23-year-old kid from New Jersey who, from an early age, had to cope with Tourette's Syndrome, a brain disorder that can trigger speech and facial tics, vocal outbursts and obsessive compulsive behavior.

Tim Howard

I am grateful for the willingness of both Jurgen Klinsmann and Everton manager Roberto Martinez to afford me the opportunity to spend time with my kids.

The President doesn't ring people out of the blue, so you know you've done something well.

Sir Alex Ferguson is one of the best managers in football history.

Tim Howard

I wanted to be a soccer player; I wanted to do it at the highest level.

Tim Howard

I've been fortunate enough to be headstrong, to be full of self-belief, and those things have never wavered for me.

Tim Howard

I wasn't a troublemaker. I wasn't impertinent. The teachers liked me. But year after year, the comments on my report cards basically came down to a single point, and it was 100% accurate: I seemed to get nothing whatsoever out of all those long hours spent in the classroom.

Tim Howard

There are very few young goalkeepers who play at the top level. Most goalkeepers figure it out as time goes on.

If there is a less likely sight on this earth than Clint Dempsey, the Texas trailer-park kid, doing downward-facing dog poses, or the stalwart Michael Bradley deep breathing through a tree pose, I have yet to see it.

Sometimes it's even hard to tell the difference between a tic and a compulsion. But while tics stem from an urge in a specific part of the body - either completely unconsciously or through a premonitory sensation that's satisfied only by the tic - OCD bubbles up as conscious thoughts in the mind.

Tim Howard

I'm an old dog; I don't get too excited. I don't get caught up in all the mass hysteria.

Tim Howard

As an OCD guy, I find change difficult.

Tim Howard

There's a tacit understanding among clubs that a good player shouldn't miss out on the big break of his career or a chance at exponentially improved earnings.

Tim Howard

I'm on television, ticcing and twitching. I think that's kind of cool.

Tim Howard

I try not to and I don't think I ever have just jumped at any opportunity because a company wanted me. Just because there was money on the table doesn't mean that I took it.

Tim Howard

Right now, as I've gotten older, my tics sustain for five or ten years. So, I can deal with them on a daily basis; I know how it affects my body. But when you're 10 years old, and every three months a tic comes along, it's daunting because you don't know what the next one is going to look like, what it's going to feel like.

Tim Howard

I like to get more than my normal 10 hours of sleep nights before a game.

Tim Howard

In July 2011, U.S. Soccer announced that they'd fired Bob Bradley and hired Jurgen Klinsmann as head coach. Jurgen had once been a world-class German striker; now he was regarded as a successful, if controversial, coach.

I'll be on a beach somewhere when I'm 40.

I think you hope, throughout the course of your career, if you do things right often enough, you might get a moment in time that you can do something special.

Pressure can be good. It helps you to see what you're all about.

Tim Howard

Sure, I like ice cream, but when you keep a healthy lifestyle, it's: Do you prefer sweets and crappy food, or do you prefer to have a nice body? It depends on what you want more.

Tim Howard

If you qualify for a World Cup and expect to get an easy group, you are in the wrong sport. It doesn't work like that.

Tim Howard

The most important thing in my life is Christ. He's more important than winning or losing or whether I'm playing or not. Everything else is just a bonus.

Tim Howard

I think part of being in the public eye is getting recognized and dealing with positive and negative scrutiny.

Tim Howard

Three mornings a week, I exercise before eating - it's called 'fasted cardio' - to burn fat.
