How grateful are you to the owners, to the sporting directors for the way in which they believed in the whole thing all the way through?
In your job, I always think the characters of a manager that wins, they're obsessive, which we know you are.
They've got something inside them, but they won't stop until they get what they want, and they know they have to be harsh at times.
You've had to be harsh at times, haven't you, along the way?
Yeah.
The moment where I thought that...
Arsenal would win the league.
And you're never sure was the moment that you went and spent over £100 million on Declan Rice.
It just felt to me like in that moment, I know you'll never say it's down to one player, but it just felt to me at that point, Arsenal have gone and won a player who looks like someone who's going to get you over the line.
That get you over the line.
Do you feel that?
Can you...
Did you feel that was a moment, a big moment?
It was a big moment.
Mikel, just looking back, when you've been on this journey for five years, you've been questioned all along the way and I've questioned at times.
I'm just trying to think of two big moments.
No, I'm trying to think of questions.
The Raya Ramsdale moment.
Yes.
That six months was a little bit uncomfortable in press conferences for you.
