Hansen said: "All right, the French will be terribly hard opposition and a lot of their players play in the Premiership, some are brilliant but they can be beaten. Scotland have to play a typical Scottish style. Get into them quick and don't let them settle and if they do that, we have a chance. Henry is a fantastic player and one of the best in the world. But if you can get in about him quick and get after him, then I have seen that sometimes he hasn't been so good."
When pressed on exactly how the Scottish defence should deal with the prolific striker, Hansen replied: "Give him a whack early on. Legitimately, of course. That will help. If you are away from home, under pressure and you get a kick, then it might put you back; get your foot in. Scotland can't give him time and space to play, because he will crucify you if you do that."
'Give him a whack'? I'd rather see the Scotland team lose 6-0...
