I've learned a lot over the years, but I am an honest person, and when I'm not happy, I can't fake a smile. If there is a problem, you will know straight away because you will see it on my face.

If I stay working with Pep Guardiola, if he wants me, he's just going to be a lucky man because I will be really hungry. I am the type of player for his philosophy and the way he likes his team.
I needed a familiar club that would give me affection, and Sevilla can do that.
Wenger is an immense manager and a great man. He takes care of his players, maybe too much. He's not a man of conflict.
If you want to be a big player and play for a big club, you have to deal with the pressure.
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.
If you look at Barcelona and the way they press high, or Bayern Munich, the way they press high... that's what makes them the best teams, because when they lose the ball, in the first three seconds, that's when they get the ball back, really, really high.
Marseille would be the only place that I'd like to play in France, but I think it's not realistic.
I can play in the centre or on the wing, behind one or two strikers, on the left or the right.
In December, every league has a break, but in England, it is not like this.
You can ask any player: I never had any problem with any French team-mate.
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.
When I am on the pitch, I don't focus on the opposition fans. I am focused on doing my best for the team.
I like Sevilla's attacking style. That is why I chose them.
I think I have had my story with France. Unfortunately, it's not the story I would have liked. I would have liked to have played a World Cup; I would have liked to have done a lot more for the French national team.
I never said Arsenal fans were not good. I just said I saw real passion when I signed here, and I said Arsenal was a little bit different. That is the only thing I said.
Mentally, I'm really strong, but for maybe the first time in my life, I cried about my career because I thought it was over. When you've been out for a year, and you think it's over, you think completely differently after that. I was just looking on TV, and I wasn't able to train, and in the meantime, I had a son.
Tactically, I know how to play on one side even though I remain convinced that I can play better through the middle.
I'm not perfect.
Of course, every game and opponent is different.
I like offensive, technical, and quick football - exactly in the style of Arsenal.
I like to be the winner; I like to change. I like to make history.
Arsenal remains a big club, but the building of Emirates Stadium changed a lot of things.
I do not have regrets, I do not regret joining Manchester City.
I think more with my head - things are 90 per cent in your head, and everything else comes after that.
You don't want to stay on the bench. You want to play every game.
Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, they play on a different galaxy.
I don't regret leaving Arsenal.
When you compare Arsenal and City, it's not the same. With City, I'm playing in a better team.
Tactically, Italians are very strong. They are a lot into tactics: how to defend, when you lose the ball, where will you be?
I don't make plans for my future. I have learned that you cannot predict what will happen.
Defeat is forbidden.
I was at Marseille and had four coaches in four seasons. Changing coaches is nothing new.
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.
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.
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.
