soccer football waiting
I can't stay in the box and wait for the ball. I can't - I would die.
games people changed
So many people say that obviously my game has changed since I arrived here and I say that it's good that it changed, otherwise it would show a lack of intelligence.
football team believe
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.
talking people talking-about-me
People are talking about me more than they talk about Eastenders.
moving goal england
I like to score a proper goal, you know - a passing move.
team thinking league
If I had a Paul Scholes in my team, everything would be around him. At Manchester United, they saw it like that, but I think Paul Scholes is one of the best I've played against in this league, and seen anywhere.
hard-work people want
There are many things I want, and the only way I will get them is to keep my head down, listen to the right people and work hard
everyday want young
I'm still young and everyday I want to learn more. I feel I am beginning to find myself.
football strong believe
Arsenal will always have a place in my heart and that is the same for so many other people too. There's a strong sense of 'family' at the Club and it is why those people that leave so often find their way back, to be around that feeling and I believe that even when you go a bit of you never leaves Arsenal anyway, that is how it has been for me. I'm just so glad that I've been able to be part of the story of the football club.
cheat has-beens
I am not a cheat and never have been
team goal helping
It's not about me, it's about how I can help my team to achieve more. And I do that through scoring goals.
football baseball team
Baseball and American football and hockey are all ahead because they have a history. The MLS is kind of new. So hopefully, in time, and with players coming and trying to develop the game, and the U.S. team also doing well - at the last World Cup, they finished above England and created some buzz.
easy guys lose love mind players scoring sometime
The thing is, don't get me wrong, I still love scoring and I hate to lose but now I see myself more as making players play better. Sometime you do what you have to do and you have to perform, that is still there, but in my mind I am thinking about making the guys around me play better and that is never an easy thing to do.
people
So few people recognize me, I can do what anyone does.
