Pochettino said, "Brazilian players are always different. They have something special about them. They are very open, happy, always smiling people. They love to play soccer because it's like a dance. They play as if they were dancing.

"They need to feel good and be happy to give the best of themselves. With Ronaldinho in the past he was a very nice guy and now I have Neymar. Your media colleagues in France ask me how Neymar is doing. Whether or not he is easy to manage?

"I said 'it's so easy for us because you don't have to do too much'. Like Kylian Mbappé."
