[Sky Sports] Jamie Carragher on Erling Haaland's fear factor: "It took me back to being a player. For 2 years, there was only 1 player in my career who affected me mentally on a pitch & that was Thierry Henry. Henry from 2002 to 2004, I was only thinking about him."
[Cadena Ser] Michu: I gave Erling Haaland a Burgos shirt & he gave me a Borussia Dortmund shirt. I'm glad he's having that impact in England, he's going to be a star at the European level with Kylian Mbappé. They're going to reign like Lionel Messi & Cristiano Ronaldo did."
De Bruyne on Foden: “What is he not good at? He can play many different positions but I think we'll eventually see him playing more centrally when he gets older. He will improve even more because he's only 22. I know at 22 I wasn't the player that I am now, so It's all about the little details."
[AS] Shakhtar’s coach Jovicevic: “What Modric is doing, playing at this level at his age and at the best club in the world, no one has done. Neither Iniesta nor Xavi, for example, who left much earlier for other clubs."
[ElChiringuito] Carlo Ancelotti: "Xavi & Messi said not always the best team wins the UCL? (Laughs). We were surprised too." "Doesn't the best team always wins? I can't have opinion on this. Playing good football is also about defending well. It's easier to say that UCL is won by the best."
[L'Equipe] After several other French cities, Paris has also decided to boycott the next World Cup in Qatar. The city hall announced on Monday that no giant screen would be installed to broadcast the matches.

Aubameyang: “At Milan, I was a child among stars. I tried to learn it all. I was there when Ronaldo said his famous quote, ‘Do you want me to run or score?’. That’s the mentality of an elite forward. Ronaldo was the best, albeit a bit fat.”
