In an emotional voice he said
Source DailyMailUk'I felt emotional when I played against them in the Emirates Cup for the first time, but it's different here in New York, plus I go there every year to train in the off season,' said the Frenchman.
'So it's not the same when as when I went back for the first time for Emirates Cup. This is a friendly game so this is different, my mind is on the league game Salt Lake next week.'It's nice because it's against Arsenal, but we don't get three points, it's a friendly.'He added: 'What was the highlight of my Arsenal career? Wearing the shirt.'Wearing the shirt was a privilege, I understood that more when I left. Those seven or eight games I played when I went back on loan in 2012, I realised how important it is to wear the shirt.'It was unbelievable, I felt a different man with this shirt.'
