I apologize for nothing.

Often there are players who have only football as a way of expressing themselves and never develop other interests. And when they no longer play football, they no longer do anything; they no longer exist, or rather they have the sensation of no longer existing.

I have great memories.

You need a particular talent only to want to please. I don't have this talent.

I started beach football in Monte Carlo when I retired from football in 1997. I liked the game very much.

I'm lucky to have the privilege of being able to choose what I want to do.

I always knew I had to work hard.

I'm never bored.

We all seem to be about aggression and greed. It's a massive pressure that affects us all.

I manage a team, for beach soccer. I'm the coach. Player, coach.

My ancestors were fighters, something I have inherited.

I didn't study; I live.

I don't want to be in Terminator. I don't want to go to Hollywood.

You can lose in cinema too if you don't put on a good performance.

If you have only one passion in life - football - and you pursue it to the exclusion of everything else, it becomes very dangerous. When you stop doing this activity it is as though you are dying. The death of that activity is a death in itself.

I prefer to play and lose rather than win, because I know in advance I'm going to win.

In football you have an adversary; in cinema that adversary is yourself.

I found leaving Manchester United very, very hard.

Some people need to stay at the top. They are afraid to re-start from zero because they fear the critics.

I have a car but it's not important.

The French have only negative things to say about everything and everyone.

Every experience makes you a man.

Children go where they find sincerity and authenticity.

When times are difficult, I tell myself, 'I'm just passing through.'
