Playing with Messi is easy. He's THE left-hander, THE player. Frankly, it's really easy to play with him. He smells of football. He always has the right gesture. If the game calls for dribbling the whole team and scoring, it will dribbling the whole team and score. If the game calls for one-touch play, it will be one-touch play. It's really his respect for the game that makes it what it is, one of the greatest in history, if not the greatest. That is each his own sensitivity.
It is admirable. But that, we must always continue to prove it. I like to admire the best. There, I am lucky to be with Lionel Messi in a locker room

It’s quite simple. I’m a competitor. When I step onto the field, it’s to win. It doesn’t matter who I play with, what jersey I wear, where I play, or what year it is. I never settle; I only want to win.
I simply focus on doing my job to the best of my abilities. I’ve been the top scorer in Ligue 1 for five consecutive years, and yet, according to my critics, I could do even better.

When you're struggling, no one else can pick you up. You have to be strong mentally and do everything to understand that you can move mountains.
