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.
Football boots are very technical and have lots of specific requirements.
If Zizou kept his temper, he would not be the genius that he is
The door can never be closed for good to any player.
When your own fans whistle and jeer, then you have a big problem.
We were a family who had come from nothing and now we had respect from French people of all sorts.
There was huge pressure, especially before the big games. Not many people believed in us, but we believed in ourselves. We wanted to do something good and we did.
Sometimes I don't know what takes me over during a game. Sometimes I just feel I have moved to a different place and I can make the pass, score the goal or go past my marker at will.
My memories of events and games are fragmented.
My toughest opponent? Scholes of Manchester. He is the complete midfielder.
Ronaldinho is total class - a very, very great player. He is quick, powerful, and has extraordinary technical qualities. He is a dribbler but is also a player who can make the play for his teammates. He's not really a No.10, a true organizer. He's more a second attacker who can score goals and has the vision to make them.
To be recognised by a whole country is incredible. This is massive.
Music was important. Football was the easy part.
Messi makes the difference most of the time. In particular, he is always going forwards. He never passes the ball backwards or sideways. He has only one idea, to run towards the goal.So as a football fan, just enjoy the show.
Scholes is undoubtedly the best midfielder of his generation.
Everything Iniesta does impresses me. He could even play as goalkeeper. He's magical.
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.
If Giggs was French, Pires or myself would have been on the bench.
All of us at Juventus agreed Manchester United were the best side we met in the Champions League. They have so many talented young players and can only get better and better. Giggs is truly world class
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.
In France, everybody realized that God exists, and that he is back in the French international team. God is back, there is little left to say.
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.
Zidane is probably the best player there has been in the past 20 years ... France have recovered the best Zidane and they have progressively grown throughout this tournament.
It's only natural to want to select your best players and there is no doubt for me that Paul Scholes is still in a class of his own. He's almost untouchable in what he does. I never tire of watching him play.
My father is an Algerian, proud of who he is and I am proud that my father is Algerian.
