I was desperate to get that record but I want to get more goals now. I want to reach 20 goals for the first time.
It should not matter where he comes from. Just someone to win matches.
It was a big step towards winning it today. We got the result, we're nearly there.
Those records are great but we're not thinking about the home record going. We're just thinking about how we're going to put it right. It's up to us.
It has been best week of my life. This has put the icing on it. I am so proud.
I think I work harder on the pitch, I cover more ground and my passing is more accurate.
I think when you have spent the money that we have, it's bound to bring it's own pressure. The players have shown that they can handle that though. (on Chelsea)
But to be fair, Arsenal are a quality side. They're not where they are by chance - they are not top of the league and unbeaten because they are a bad team.
A big deal was made about one game. There's a lot of football on TV but we still get a lot of full houses. We get great support and a lot of teams up and down the country get it as well.
When I came to Chelsea from West Ham there were certain parts of my game I felt I needed to improve and I like to think now that I have shown dramatic improvement.
I don't think Wayne Rooney would be affected if you booed him, that's just how he is, but others go under. They really suffer with it. I think I'm somewhere in the middle... now. I've become tougher as I've got older.
I wouldn't say what was said got under our skin. There were things said before the last Champions League game and we felt we had been talked about it a bad way. But we put it right in the league game up there which is the main place to do your talking.
