“Zizou has been a leader wherever he has played. He was the captain of ...” — Roberto Carlos Quote

“Zizou has been a leader wherever he has played. He was the captain of France, a World Cup winner and been a winner in all the clubs he played for. So he has enough experience to handle and manage a group. More importantly, he is a man who everyone respects.”

“I love English football because it's real football. I love everything that surrounds it. The public, the atmosphere, the preparation.”

“I can bring Neymar to Real Madrid.”

“Buffon, for us, is the captain. He is the player with the most experience and we are lucky to have the man who I believe is the best goalkeeper of all time defending our goal. We always try to make sure that he has to make very few saves, but it is extremely reassuring having him in goal.”

“I still have ambition to captain England into the 2011 World Cup. I'm very keen to do that job.”

“In terms of pace, every captain wants pace in their attack.”
