I'm well-educated person. I don't reurn the gift

The most skillful is Thierry Henry, he has impressed me the most. He's played a great tournament(Euro '00). He has the pace of Anelka, and the sense of Trezeguet. He's got something that no French player has ever had. He can do everything: from scoring goals, to giving assists, crossing and creating space for other players, and he fights for every ball. I've never see a player in France like him

I began by playing for the biggest club in the Lorraine region, went on to the biggest club in France and ended up with the biggest in the world.

Some games you win, some you lose, and some you draw.

Footballing qualities can be developed, but Stoichkov is a player with character and inborn talent. I've seen him produce fantastic plays even from impossible situations... I couldn't believe it, when I heard that I used to be his idol.

If a FIFA World Cup tournament had been held every year between 1982 and 1986, France would have won two or three.
