For a player or coach, there is nothing better than the World Cup.

Sometimes it doesn't take much to slip back into bad habits.

I wish Kylian to have the same career as Thierry Henry.

When things are tough, French athletes tend to pull out great performances.

Even when things are going well, there are always aspects that can be improved.

We can always improve everything.

Managing players is harder these days because of the arrival of new technology. They are all using it in their spare time so they become more isolated and selfish. They share less, they talk less. They have apps, their phones and the Internet but they are less used to talking to people.

Nowadays you never see players playing cards. We used to sit around playing cards together all the time. But I can't fight that, I have to adapt and change.

For Euro 2016, we must remain humble, but we have the ambition to go as far as possible.

With the support of all our fans, we have to be stronger than our opponents.

To build experience, you have to play.

We often compare footballers with players of the past.

We must not dive into tackles but force the opponent to run so that maybe they will crack late in the game.

We must condition the players. They need to get into the right frame of mind in the hours leading up the game.

Brazil is the land of football. They have a lot of passion.

Brazil remains a reference to the sport.

When you're a coach there's no age limit. It's the results that make you last.

It's quite easy in football when you can bang it into the top corner.

Paul Pogba can do everything but he cannot do everything all alone.

Having fresh players is important.

There are always crucial, decisive players in every side who make the difference and do not necessarily depend on others.

When you play Argentina and Messi, there are several ways to limit his impact, at least.

Messi plays in Spain, we know he makes a difference, but if you've played against him then maybe you're aware of situations that can repeat on the pitch. But Messi is Messi, with his talent, he may send a spark with very little and make the difference. He is unpredictable.

Goal-line technology is a good thing. The ref gets the signal and can decide based on that.

A 3-0 win in the World Cup, it's never easy.

All the great teams need a real top striker in order to win in Europe.

History is in the past and tomorrow we will try and write a new page.

To be in the France team means they have a number of duties and responsibilities.

Scoring eight goals is never easy.

For me, I always considered that a group is above everything else.

Sometimes you need to encourage them sometimes even to comfort them, let them know I trust them. Sometimes you need to tell the truth, being more aggressive. That's management. I need to put the players in the best possible conditions.

I always ask myself if a decision is in the team's best interest.

Nothing is impossible. Lassana Diarra did not play for France for five years and then returned.

One of the main tasks of a manager is psychology.

You need to have discussions and make sure you guide players towards the collective spirit. It can't be done overnight.

Either a player accepts competition or they say they absolutely need to play. For a player to have an open door, I have to have, at the same position, an element that is just as good or even better.

Open all the debates that you want, but I think that the players that I select, and in whom I have total confidence, deserve a minimum amount of respect.

In tough times, that's when you see true colours and personality.

Creativity is making a good pass at the right time... but it can also come from deeper, there should always be a balance.

What interests me principally are points.

To score three goals and not concede any is always interesting for a coach.

There is no better lawyer than Cristiano Ronaldo.

There is no worse situation to enter competition than losing the home opener.

When you make your final list for the World Cup or European Championship you don't take the 23 best players, that is for sure.

We arrived at the 2002 World Cup with two titles, very calm, well organised, maybe missing a bit of concentration. But the only truth is on the pitch. The dangers are there.

The biggest victories can lead to the greatest foolishness.

People always want the same thing: to carry on winning.

I don't think you just become a leader.

When you go to a club abroad and play against one from your own country, you are part of the enemy.

My players need to have the feeling that they've pushed themselves to their limits.
