 I don't know if we are the best team in the world. I am lucky to be playing alongside some of the best players around. It's a dream. |
| Music was important. Football was the easy part. |
| I'm very inspired by him-it was my father who taught us that an immigrant must work twice as hard as anybody else, that he must never give up. |
| It's the first time it's happened to me and maybe the last. It's a strange sensation, not normal for me. I can't remember scoring three goals, even when I was a kid. |
| The only important thing I have to say is that my father never fought against his country. |
| A Mediterranean city is really my culture. |
| We must not let ourselves get driven off course, no matter what happens we must stick to our natural game. |
| We are well aware of the task ahead of us in what will be a very difficult match but which we all dream of playing. |
| I have no message. |
| The England team must always be respected. They always fight to the end. |
| I have a need to play intensely every day, to fight every match hard. |
| We were a family who had come from nothing and now we had respect from French people of all sorts. |
| I may have had a lot of luck in my life, but I still need to find a challenge in the game. |
| I am first of all from La Castellane and Marseille. |
| I have never had the opportunity to play in England, so I know little about it. |
| To be recognised by a whole country is incredible. This is massive. |
| We'll do it, we'll do it. |
| It will be a physical encounter but we must not respond in kind. |
| My passion for the game comes from the city of Marseille itself. Unfortunately I can't go back there as much I want to because I play a lot here and abroad. |
| I love Madrid. I am happy to be here. I have been here three years and hope to be here longer. But I am proud of where I come from and never forget the people I grew up with. |
