“A team doesn't have the ball for 90 minutes. It is about the recoveries. I do my best to do that and help the team any way I can. If that's a pass, an assist, a tackle or even if it's only running, I do it for the team.”
“Every day in training you learn. I've been playing football for years, and I understand the game better with time.”
“My ultimate ambition is to win the Premier League.”
“You have to be able to analyse things well. Before I receive a pass, I always look to see what options I have.”
“Play in Ligue 1 is very closed, very aggressive.”
“I defend like a man who likes to work too because I know that football is not just about what you do on the ball.”
“We try to give everything in all the games, but we know it's not always possible.”
“I joke every day, pranks, sometimes.”
“To play better, you have to think faster than the others.”
“I changed Portugal to France and France to England.”
“Believe in yourself and believe in your dreams. Follow them, never give up, that's the most important thing. If you believe you can get there, then one day you will.”
“If I score, the better. But if everyone could choose, they would choose to win and not to score.”
