Did you used to play for Barcelona? Because that's not Barcelona football.

Best defender I have played against? Carles Puyol

I am an Arsenal player and I don't think about anything else. I'm not going to say no to anybody, nor am I going to say yes to anybody. I did not say that I was going to leave Arsenal to go to Barcelona, because equally Barcelona doesn't want me.

If I could reincarnate as another player, I might want to reincarnate as Thierry Henry at the top of his game.

I do feel that I have unfinished business in the Premier League and now is the right time to return. I considered all the other offers very carefully and I firmly believe that Chelsea is the best choice. They match my footballing ambitions with their hunger and desire to win trophies.

I am really proud to HAVE been an Arsenal player.

I think you have to be grateful to those who have helped you.
