Buffon’s final wish: ‘I have always wanted to win it’

Buffon’s final wish: ‘I have always wanted to win it’

On Monaco ...I'll let you into a little secret. Around the 30-minute mark of their match away to Manchester City, I sent a message to one of our directors, saying: "Hey, this lot could make it to the final; they're really strong!" That shows you how much respect we have for them. They play positive, energetic football and they're a sparkling, physical side with quality players and a lot of experience. We know that if we want to get another shot at winning the Champions League, we have to overcome an obstacle that'll be at least as tricky as Barcelona in footballing terms.
