The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Adebayo Akinfenwa
- During my career I’ve come back to clubs after the summer break to see one of my team-mates not really at it because he’s been denied a move to a bigger club for whatever reason, and you can see in his body language that he doesn’t want to be there and that kind of thing is massively disruptive and negative.
- Defy the limitations people put on you.
- As you get older, you know what you’re good at and you know what you’re not so good at. Your ego comes out of it, and then you realise you can’t play every game, there’ll be certain games where you won’t be so affected… so you’ve just got to concentrate on what you are.
- Training to be a tough tackler isn’t easy – you don’t want to injure yourself or team-mates so it’s crucial that you have self-belief in your abilities and strength.
- I’d like to be a Marvel character and get in one of those films.
- My old boss Aidy Boothroyd is a great man and I’ve got no malice or anything toward him.
- My size works against me as well, as some players I would just touch and they would fall over to get a free kick.
- I was raised on an estate in an inner city school where people had a go about my size, people saying I am too big to play football – which still happens today – and I used that to inspire me.
- Beast Mode On is a state of mind. Beast Mode is about applying yourself and defying the limitations people put on you.
- With hard work comes rewards and I want to make youngsters who could have gone left but went right find the right path.
