-“Why don’t you put Rulli, he’s the best Olympian and the best goalkeeper in L1?”
« One match in two is played on penalties, especially with direct penalties with a draw at the end. The second goalkeeper is perhaps a phenomenon, except that when you only have one competition to play and that is your priority objective, and you put your typical team on the ten outfield players, why you don't put Rulli, he's the best Olympian and the best goalkeeper in Ligue 1 since the start of the season », says the former player of theABOUT at the microphone of RMCbefore continuing.
“And now we have to do social work!”
« And what's more, he has taken 3 out of 3 penalties since the start of the season. That is to say, he has already eaten their brains through the TV.

In my time, number twos never played. They watched the match from the stands all year round. And now we have to do social work! », s'agaga Eric Di Meco.
