I typically downshift through the gears when coming to a stop, but it isn't necessary just helps with engine braking and saves a little on brakes. If you have a sport and have your synchro rev match on then you should practice this tactic. If not then you do not HAVE to put the car in neutral or press the clutch until your RPMs are low. Say like 1500 or so. If you always take it out of gear or press the clutch when you start to come to a stop then you will use more brakes in the long run. Let the engine help you stop, just don't let the RPMs go below your idle point without pressing the clutch in.
