this was going to be in the football forum but it's about the origin rather than subject of this endlessly reiterated quote, attributed to zinedine zidane (in relation to sale of claude makalélé)
some time ago tried to find original version of this in french and spanish (not kabyle, assuming he speaks that) but cursory conclusion judging by paucity of non-english references is that it was invented by an english journalist
no positive evidence for this and didn't search very far but it doesn't sound like anything the gnomic or perhaps thick zidane would say; reference to bentley seems a bit provincial
