"We need to enjoy these moments because you never know whether this kind of game will come around again. All of the players are ready for this semi-final with the exception of Quentin Ndjantou, so we'll see what the best team is. Every coach wants to head into the run-in with their team in the best possible shape, and the magic of the Champions League gives players energy. We're doing very well right now."
"I like all of their players, and Vincent Kompany is a top manager, as he showed in England. When he signed for Bayern, we immediately saw what kind of team they would be. Bayern are one of the teams that I enjoy watching the most because they're always on the attack. I like every manager but particularly attack-minded managers, and he's one of them."
"These are Europe's top two teams, although Arsenal have also had a great season. In terms of consistency, Bayern are perhaps slightly above us because they've only lost two games, but in terms of what we've shown, there's no team better than us. After we missed out on the top eight [in the league phase], I said that there was no team better than us. You need to attack more than you defend if you want to win, and we know how hard that will be, but we're not here to negotiate; we want to win."
"The intensity of our play both in and out of possession is the key. In tomorrow's game, there'll be times when we won't have the ball, and that atmosphere, which we've become used to, is always really important to help us to win this kind of knockout game. To win these games, you need to play well both at home and away. Bayern are capable of doing the same thing. They played at the Parc des Princes last winter, but what we always show is that special connection with our fans. That will be important."
