He was, of course, someone who had a totally different philosophy about the game than what
00:12
was used in England, not only on the pitch but off the pitch as well, making players
00:16
realise what it is to be a professional footballer, just taking care of your body, focus on being
00:21
the best you can be every day, day in, day out.
00:24
Of course, my first season was a year where I saw a lot of surprising things, with alcohol,
00:31
gambling, that sort of stuff.
00:33
To say it's part of the English game, I could understand at that time, but as soon as Arsene
00:37
came, he changed it all around and I think everyone, including the club, was happy with
00:42
how he approached it and it was a good choice.
00:45
It's really difficult for me to mention one or two moments.
00:49
I think I was very happy with the 11 years I played for Arsenal.
00:53
Of course, there are moments with good goals and trophies, the Invincible season, of course,
00:59
my first season winning those two personal trophies.
01:02
It's been very successful and very enjoyable.
01:04
I've been lucky with a lot of players that I've played with.
01:09
For example, Ian was a great help to me in my first season, just by being him.
01:14
He was just typical with the humour, taking the pressure off me in games, but also a great
01:20
character in the dressing room, which helped me realise how the English game was.
01:24
Patrick is probably one of the players that could change games just by himself.
01:29
That's what he did in his first game.
01:31
So, such a strong, big play, which made a big impact on Arsenal at that time.
01:38
If you mention Thierry Henry, that's, for me, the best player I've ever played with.
01:44
I still don't know what his weakness is.
01:46
It's unbelievable how good he was.
