New Arsenal signing Mesut Ozil faced the English press for the first time today as an Arsenal player and the German international seemed delighted to have signed for Arsene Wenger’s men.
Here are just some of the quotes from the midfielder’s conference:
– ‘It feels great, I feel very good here. I’m sure the boss will improve me and I’m proud to be part of the team’.
– ‘I talked to Mertesacker and Podolski about the Club. I’ve only heard positive things’
– ‘Of course [we can challenge for the title]. This is one of the biggest clubs in the world’
– ‘Many young players came here and got better, and became some of the best players in the world’
– ‘I had a very good time in Madrid.. but I have made the next step, I’m in the strongest league in the world’
– ‘For me the most important thing is I have fun. We have a busy schedule and I’m looking forward to it’
– ‘I’ve watched a lot of Premier League games, of course it’s very physical but this is a man’s sport’
– ‘When I talked to Arsene on the phone he was full of respect and as a player I need the respect’
Ozil then finished by saying ‘I am a Gunner’
