It suits you, it’s good Los Angeles, how’s life here?
I’m really enjoying it. You saw, it’s sunny here. I’m really happy.
How’s the preparation going, how are the facilities, tell me a little about it.
It’s going very well, it’s sunny and we’re in a good frame of mind. We’ve also got time to enjoy the city a little. It’s good for the head too, and to get down a bit because it’s the end of the season. It’s good to get more energy and we’re happy. Hopefully, we’ll be able to use all this for a long time to come, because we can spend a month there.

How do you feel about tomorrow’s match ?
Personally, I’m feeling good, and I think the team are feeling good too. We’ve prepared well over the last few days and when we came back from selection, we were fine. We’re ready for our objective, which is to get to the end. We want to win this competition.
How have you been feeling since the Champions League win ?
You can see my face, I’m still smiling. I’m happy to be European champion.
