Messi is a Playstation.

A manager is a guide. He takes a group of people and says, 'With you I can make us a success; I can show you the way.'

In some ways England is more liberal than France, but I also find it more intrusive. But when you go abroad you have to accept the ways of where you live. I have to respect that.

I didn't know the English were good at swimming. I have been in this country for 12 years and I haven't seen a swimming pool.

I believe in work, in connections between the players, I think what makes football great is that it is a team sport. You can win in different ways, by being more of a team, or by having better individual players. It is the team ethic that interests me, always.

I am supposed to take the bullets and absorb them. Like a bear, a polar bear.

I don't kick dressing room doors, or the cat - or even journalists
