“I like Benzema’s work with France. His goal was important to his team. He was tired and slightly niggled when he returned, but he’s worked well. Every player on this squad is important because we have games every two or three days. I haven’t been very lucky with our schedule, which complicates things. Benzema and Higuain are important to us. They have to do whatever’s necessary to meet our demands. Benzema did well in en Bosnia, but it is more important to me for a player to work well than to play well. Talented players have to work hard because talent is implicit. Benzema’s mentality has changed and he is currently working with personal ambition.”
