So I get like the early FA Cup games, early Carabao Cup games.
I don't like the final stuff.
This idea that you owe this one person in your squad this thing of playing a cup final when you've got millions of supporters around the world who are like, paying the money week in week out until I go and watch you win.
Now, if you're playing for a team who win quite a lot, listen, if City was a lost...
at the weekend wouldn't it be that big a deal for City to lose it feels like a big deal for Arsenal to lose for me because of the reasons you've said and he's still going to get that question as can you get over the line and I just think the way Arteta is as a manager he's quite ruthless he looks you know he means business on the side of the pitch that's just like no and the reason I'm quite hard on back up goalkeepers I don't have much time for them they get paid to not play
So, you know, it's like fucking hell.
They're the only ones who do it.
I mean, they're everywhere.
You know, OK, you need a back-up goalkeeper.
You need a good goalkeeper.
You've got to give them the right few quid to make sure they get paid probably more than what they should because you're not going to play.
Just keep the... And to say he's got to play in the Carabao Cup final, no.
He can't do that.
You still need to buy a centre-forward.
Yeah, I was out having a meal for my dad's birthday and I got a text message, yeah, just when it came through on his socials.
I think it's the right decision for everyone really I think it's good you know the way he did it international break no games around gives you know everyone to prepare to move on fans I mean I'm sure the club and him and his advisors were probably speaking with him since probably January and I think it's probably yeah it's right for everyone I think right now but I think I think from the when you think of the Champions League this year I think there's a lack of quality in the Premier League and I think we lost to Bruin last season and
I'm losing a superstar now.
So I think it's... Obviously, they're not the same players now, but I think there's a real lack of sellers in the Premier League right now.
So it will be a bad miss.
And naturally, when you announce you're retiring or moving on, you don't think of now.
