Marseille star Mathieu Valbuena has spoken of his pride at representing France.
The 28-year-old looks likely to win his 20th cap for Les Bleus against Georgia this evening, playing in the number 10 jersey made famous by Michel Platini.
"Being a first-team regular involves a lot of responsibility," Valbuena told a press conference.
"I'm playing in a position I love, the number 10, and I have a lot of responsibilities, but that's also the case in every position.
"It's something I never imagined would happen. I'm incredibly proud to be playing for France, so to do so wearing the number ten is something amazing."
France face Spain in Paris on Tuesday.
