    Reaction from Novak Djokovic after beating Gilles Muller following their fourth round meeting at the Australian Open on Monday

    Script:

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Novak Djokovic, Top seed: (on reaching the quarter-finals) "Generally is a positive feeling. I haven't dropped a set, I'm in the quarter-finals. Yes, I had tough matches the last two rounds, but I had quality opponents. I think I dropped serve only once during the whole tournament. That is a very encouraging fact. I have to motivate myself and obviously use the off days to work on a few things. There are a few things I think I can do better. Overall it's a positive feeling going into the quarters."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Novak Djokovic, Top seed (on his next opponent, Milos Raonic):
    "I played Milos finals of Bercy last time. I know what to expect. We practice a lot. We live in the same place. We're good friends. He's very confident. He's been playing some great tennis in last 15 months. He deserves to be where he is now, top 10, coming closer to top five of the world. Tough one. Definitely a tough one. I need to be at my best, top of my game, in order to win that match."

    SOUNDBITE: (English) Novak Djokovic, Top seed (on suggestions Milos Raonic isn't as athletic as some of the other top players):
    "He's a very disciplined player, always works out. Always spends a lot of time in the gym, off the court, preparing himself, his body, for tough battles. Does spend a lot of time for the recovery, as well, preparation, prevention. He's got a very good team of people around him. I know the people who are around him. I've worked with them as well. It's a good team. Sooner or later if you have quality, you have a good team of experts around you, you have that discipline and commitment to what you need to do on a daily basis, the results are inevitable."
