10. 1.  Why did you pick to play on the France team instead of the Algerian team? I chose this question because he is really from Algeria and I think the Algerian football team would have done better if Zinedine was on their team.

11. 2.  At what age did you decide to become a football player? For example my friend wanted to be a doctor ever since she was 12 and know she’s 28 and she is a Dr. I asked this because sometimes if you have a career dream at a young age that means you will have more practice on it, and that will help you in the future.

12. 3.  What are your plan for the future? For example do you want to become coach? I asked this question because I think he would a great coach, and I even read that he is going to start working with Murinho coaching Real Madrid.
