00:00You had the chance to participate in this game as a player, as a manager.
00:03It's one of the greatest memories in English football.
00:06What's your best positive memory as a player or a manager?
00:09Probably afterwards, especially when you win at home and you celebrate with your supporters
00:14and you know how it means. There is something special. We have so many huge Arsenal supporters
00:20since the day that they were born and looking at that stuff and we have some good examples
00:26around the first team as well, coming after the game and the emotion and what it means for them.
00:32It's a privilege to have the power to contribute to someone,
00:36making someone really happy and especially different.
00:39I want to ask you about the Spurs manager, I won't use the word admire,
00:43but how much respect have you got for him from the moment he got to Spurs?
00:48No, I admire him. I admire him and respect him. I think he's been an inspirational
00:53coach as well in my career because he's done things in his own way in various
00:58contexts in various countries and he has a very unique way of thinking about the game
01:03and his philosophy and I love it. He stands by it and I think
01:08as well he represents himself and the club in a really good way.
