There's always that mental battle, who's going to have that confidence to be on the front foot.

I can't even count to five when I say my proper friends in football.

Arsenal has always been special for me.

We have to present ourselves as a unit, no matter what happens. That is what Arsenal stands for.

Mentality is a big part of every game, when you take the initiative and when you drop.

The main thing for me was that I wanted to be able to decide when my international career would end after 10 years myself.

I wasn't that good at football aged 14 or 15. I didn't take it too seriously.

I was with Bremen in a good situation in the Bundesliga. I was the captain and was involved in everything to do with the club.

I was talented at a young age, but I still had to grow and develop further.

The amount of staff we have in academies is... I've never seen anything like it. It's good to take care of the players but sometimes I get confused by the number of people who have an impact on one kid - we're talking 100 people or more. It's quite a heavy load.
