Who's that team they call the Arsenal?
Who's that team we all adore?
They're the boys in red and white,
and they fight with all their might,
and they're out to show the world just how to score!"

Quotes form Q&A at the FWA awards
· To Fabrice Muamba, who is at the ceremony: “Your fight is just incredible; I can’t wait to see you back on the pitch”
Back to Arsenal
· Credits club chief scout Steve Rowley for his success and thanks technical and medical staff.
On captaincy:
· It was a sad moment because it meant Fabregas left, but we had to move on. It was a massive honor, so I took it. Says he learned a lot from former Arsenal captains Tony Adams, Thierry Henry, Cesc Fabregas and, Patrick Viera.
On his playing position:
· I’m not a traditional No 9, so I was a bit insecure, whether I could play in this league as a CF, or a 2nd striker. So I did a bit of both, what I call a 9.5. His definition of the unorthodox role he plays at AFC.
On his favorite goal this season:
· Picks the volley against Everton as his favorite goal. Thanks Theo and Song for the assists
On his future:
· Arsenal is an unbelievable club and the player I am today is because of Arsenal. Eight years ago, RVP told by David Dein he had to sign for Arsenal with Dein’s ‘lucky’ pen. Bergkamp signed with it. Henry did. Vieira did. RVP says he signed for club because’ my heart was running hard for Arsenal. Still have to set a date after end of season for meeting with Gazidis and the Boss (AW) whatever happens with me I’ll always feel a Gunner.
