I was lucky to come from a difficult area. It teaches you not just about football but also life. There were lots of kids from different races and poor families. People had to struggle to get through the day.

I am first of all from La Castellane and Marseille.

Life is full of regrets, but it doesn't pay to look back.

Mandela has played a crucial part in history. He's done some extraordinary things, not only for his country but also for the whole world.

Music was important. Football was the easy part.

I am supposed to set an example to young players.

It's true, pressure is something that goes with football nowadays. You need to accept it, and everything that it involves - the good and the bad.
