00:00 How happy are you to be back in Newcastle after so many years?
00:05 Well, I come back quite often to Newcastle to watch some games, but I don't speak loud about it.
00:15 Just as a supporter, as a fan.
00:19 But obviously tomorrow is a bit different because Paris is one of my former clubs
00:26 and I started at Newcastle while I was at Paris Saint-Germain, so it's a bit different.
00:32 It's nice and good to see Newcastle back in the Champions League after a fantastic season last year.
00:40 I mean, they've done so great.
00:43 Eddie Howe surprised me a lot in many ways,
00:47 so everything he did in terms of how he plays football with his players, with his team, is really much, much better compared to the previous years.
01:00 I just hope that tomorrow the game will be, and the atmosphere as well, will be amazing because this is what Newcastle need.
01:09 They need to be in the Champions League year in, year out.
01:12 They need to perform. It's a big stage tomorrow.
01:17 I think it's a good way to send a massive message to European football and say,
01:24 'Well, Newcastle is on track now and we'll count on the Magpies in the next few years.'
01:32 Do you have a score prediction? I know you play for both clubs.
01:35 The only thing I want is to see an amazing game. The atmosphere will be great.
01:43 I think Paris will be surprised with that.
01:47 That prediction, well, one side of me will say, 'Well, I hope that Newcastle at home will perform well and be successful.'
02:00 Paris have been trying for years and years to win the Champions League.
02:08 They're one of the big clubs right now.
02:12 If Newcastle want to become one of the best, they need to beat Paris Saint-Germain tomorrow night.
02:20 That's the only thing I can say.
02:23 My heart is just going there, watch the game, enjoy football and the atmosphere.
02:30 It's about that. It's about enjoying because most of the supporters tomorrow will be there to enjoy,
02:36 to see the Zebra shirts be at the top level.
02:40 The Champions League stage is always fantastic.
02:43 Just listening to the music at the beginning of the Champions League anthem would be amazing.
02:50 Especially at home, you play the first game away at Milan and then you're at St James Park.
02:57 I guess the city tomorrow will be booming and I hope in a good way.
03:03 good way.
