GERVINHO

Eden has learnt a lot at Lille, and I believe he could succeed abroad.

I love the French league very much. The league allowed me to shoot to the European level.

Wenger never had faith in me.

When you get to a club and things are not going well, it's not easy to live.

In Ivory Coast it's very hard to have normal shoes, so just imagine football boots - they were considered a true luxury.

Entertaining those who come to see me is my objective.

Salah is a tough guy. Always calm and strong, with the mentality of a hard worker. I'll never forget his training sessions: very high rhythm, pushed like a madman, you watched him in amazement.

I was born in a tiny place in Ivory Coast, so being a protagonist in this life is a dream.

To play for Arsenal will be the best day of my life and I will do anything to play for that team.

During the holidays, professional players would come and say hello to us in the academy and that really made you want to be a professional. When you saw what great conditions they lived in, it gave you even more desire.

It is always a great pleasure to fight for your own country.

The passion the British people have for football - they live for football.

I think long-term, not short-term.

I left England because I was not playing.

The academy at Abidjan was my school of education. At 16, they sent me the boots and jersey with my name on the back. You can imagine how I felt: in the clouds.

The best risk to take is to look to score goals and to play a lot.

Thanks to football my family are able to live well.

Everything's possible in football.

I want to help the team to have a great season. I will give everything and never give up.

All the fans want to see good games.

I don't detest Arsenal because of the way Wenger treated me.

I lived a dream. Any kid who starts playing can't help but to dream to play at a club like Arsenal.

Every game is tough for me because the level of competition is so high in the Premier League, and every time you have to be at your best.

There is no small team or easy match in football.

Arsenal will always remain a large club.
