Gary Lineker

I was top scorer in the Division 1, as it was then called.

And I was on, I think, 400 quid a week, 24 years old, and that's when I moved to Everton for a year.

So it's gone up, but it felt like a lot at the time.

I think the thing is that you are in the right place at the right time, but you're actually in the right place all the time.

But often the ball is not.

So the secret of scoring goals is it's the law of probability.

So most strikers and most people I watch...

wait to see where the ball is going to be crossed and then attack the ball.

Others, say from midfield, they'll wait to see where the pass is and then they'll chase the pass.

The way you score goals is to gamble on the space where you think the cross might go, where you can score from.

So if you keep doing that run, now 19 times out of 20, the ball won't go there.

It'll go behind you.

It'll go behind the goal.

The keeper will catch it.

It won't go to that spot where you think it might go.

So if you keep going at that spot, that spot, then another spot.

And just gambling on where you think it might go on the 20th time.

You'll be there, and the ball goes in that spot, and you've got an easy chance.

Everyone looks at it, see, right place, right time.

They don't see the other 19 times where you were in the right place, but the ball wasn't.
