"Everyone is fit to start tomorrow's game. I'm quite confident in the girls' state of mind. I think they'll be 100% determined to win challenges and impose our style of play. We know that we can't afford to step off the gas in a Women's Champions League game. We have managed to get some good form back in front of goal, even against strong opponents. It's not all perfect, but we're improving, we're in a good spell. Marie-Antoinette Katoto has shown impressive determination to come back. She's enjoying playing, and is in good form. Little by little, she's getting back to her best level.

"We have worked a lot on different kinds of formations, how things fit together. That's something that takes time, and we're starting to see the fruit of our work over the last few months. We'll have to be disciplined tomorrow, even if we have improved in that regard in recent games. Regardless of Bayern Munich's form, they're a big club. It'll be a very intense match, so we'll have to be disciplined to ensure we don't give them space. We have to play to win, I think that has been our strength recently. We mustn't change that, even if we'll adapt given how the game goes, but we have to keep that dominant attitude that we have taken time to build."

"Marie-Antoinette Katoto has never given up. I'm very proud of her comeback. She brings a plus to the team, and I hope she'll keep going like that.

"Whether we're on the pitch or off it, the team has fun. Having spoken to some teammates, there is a different dynamic in the squad, and you can feel that. I hope we'll be able to continue like this. We talk a lot among ourselves, it's easy to play with these girls. It's true that I often play with Sakina [Karchaoui] to my left, but whoever plays alongside me in defence, I adapt."
