Tactically, Italians are very strong. They are a lot into tactics: how to defend, when you lose the ball, where will you be?
I will only be 29 in 2016 for the European Championships, but the French national team doesn't make me happy.
You don't forget where you came from. I came from nothing. I was in Marseille in a bad area. We didn't have anything. We were rich in love.
Sometimes it is a good thing to hear what kids have to tell you. Kids just tell the truth.
My parents sacrificed everything for me. My father worked on a building site and as a driver - so many jobs. My mum was at home full-time to take care of me, my sister, and two brothers.
Marseille has a big Muslim community. The good thing is it is a melting point: all nationalities in there. Everyone is fine with each other. It is really close to North Africa, to Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco, so a lot of them come from there.
From time to time, I'm a jerk.
Sometimes I do things in training and think, 'Ah! I need to do that in a game. If I do I will be close to my full potential.'
I wasn't just playing football on the street. I grew up on the street.
You can't be the best every game. Even Messi can have a bad game.
When I'm happy and smiling, I play my best.
I have to smile because we, as footballers, are really lucky to do the job we do. But this is not just a job for me. It's my passion.
All my younger years, I was a No. 10. In the national team, I used to play No. 10, and Marseille, I used to play No. 10.
Real Madrid, they are the best counter-attacking team in the world.
I try to be precise with my passes but take some risks as well.
If you win the Carling Cup, it can give you confidence, and sometimes, when you haven't won a trophy, you become scared of winning.
I will not play for Tottenham.
I just look at what is best for me.
I'm not an Arsenal fan. I am not from London.
When Manchester City came for me it was the best choice to come here.
