That's the way it is, but with Arsenal it is more direct. I'm not attacking anyone, just we need to play quicker and alternate things a bit. The earlier the ball, the better.

We are going through maybe not in the Arsenal way - but we are through.

With Arsenal, we try straight away to hit the striker early. The earlier I get the ball the better.

I'm obsessed by the idea of making my mark on history. And Arsenal is my paradise.

I am always honest, and I am not the sort of player to say, 'Oh, I love Arsenal' and then sign for someone else. I think if I was unhappy, I would say that, but I'm not. I do love Arsenal.

I am a believer in passing the ball on the ground, I was lucky to be part of teams like that at Arsenal, with the French national team and with Monaco and at Barcelona. I know you can win in other ways, but I believe that is the way football should be played.
