If I ever wear a Chelsea shirt, you have permission to kill me.

My mum has always said I am too hard on myself. But I have always been like that and it has always helped me. After matches I focus only on what I did wrong. Never what I did well.

If I ever wear a Chelsea shirt, you have permission to kill me.

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

If one day I leave Arsenal, I will never sign for another English team. Quite sure.

I've had a couple of years where injuries have not let me develop in the way I wanted. When I was 21, after the European Championship, I had more injuries. Everything has been less continuous and it has cost me more progress. Continuity is what got me where I am.

Hard work does not guarantee success, but no work guarantees failure.
