Euro 2016 : Patrice Evra wary of Iceland but did not want to stagnate
Patrice Evra did not hide that the Blues had to improve their game early to avoid a cold sweat.
"We have great respect for Iceland but we can not stop there, it's impossible to go out against this team. We must not fall into the trap, but it's a quarterfinal, very lucky. It must pass a landing in Brazil we stopped at this point and we did not want to repeat the experience. Otherwise we will not know if this group has reached a plateau. This is important, we must go in the semifinals. Do not pass this turn would give the impression to stagnate. And I do not want to stagnate. "
The match coves
"Our game starts are not good. There is tired of always reacting instead of acting. The more we pass the towers, the more it becomes difficult. We need to be afraid, to be back to the wall, that's the problem. One day it will no longer happen, moreover it could not go against Iceland. It is crazy. perhaps we too trust us, because we were not even tired after matches. And we say at the end: "We're sick! '"
Iceland
"It should not take credit for this team. It's been four or five years they play together, they are very good players. They know to ask, playing triangle. I mistrusted. They still finished ahead of the Czech Republic in qualifying, beat the Netherlands ... I did not wait for the match against England to see that this team is solid. We watch all matches. This is a team that gives everything for his people, which has magnificent supporters. It will be a very difficult match. "
Long keys
"At Manchester United at the time of Rory Delap, famous javelin thrower, we worked those situations in training! It is a weapon, Icelanders have already scored two goals like that. Attention, they also play ball, but we will work on it and be focused. "
Paul Pogba, his future, his state of mind
"I'll end up believing that I am the father of Paul ... A possible return to Manchester? I'm not his agent either! Let the quiet, the France team, it's not Paul Pogba, this is not Antoine Griezmann. Paul wants to succeed, but in football sometimes you can not! But he's fine, it's a happy man, do not make you worry for him. He will assume when the France team will really need as Grizou did against Ireland. "
Umtiti-Mangala
"I do not know yet who will play, but I see him in training, because the coach does not test at the last minute. Whether or Elia Big Sam, I do not make me worry. I trust each of the 23 players. This is not a problem to celebrate his debut on a match like that. If they are there is because they deserve it. They will be comfortable on the pitch because we will be there for them, they just have to do what they used to do in the club. "
Its development in Blue ... and on Instagram
"Since France-Ukraine, it's really something else, I take pleasure to come for France. Before, it was more complicated ... At my age, I discovered Instagram, it's funny! I exchange with fans, and then there's this guy who turned this picture ... It's hard, because even me it makes me laugh! "
