It's true I'm more widely recognised now and get invited to take part in all sorts of events and projects but as a person, I haven't changed.

I only really watch sport. That's where you see real joy. I don't like watching much else on TV, because it's generally either twisted or sad.

Here in Cameroon, football is our leading political party. It's football alone that that unites us, it's football alone that brings us good things - football is the window into our country - so we don't mess around with it.

Cameroon is stronger because it's a country of conquerors, of winners. Cameroon's players aren't necessarily very technical, but that when they play, they play to win.

The president requested me to restore order in the national team. I have been designated to be part of the official delegation to Egypt to help boost the morale of our players.

Everybody knows everything about all the teams now.

You can be a top, top player for 10, 20 years, then you become a coach, lose two or three games and you're out.
