I'm a 24-year-old, and I enjoy my life, and winning a football game is the most enjoyable thing I've ever experienced in my life.

For me, a good season is one that ends with a trophy.
The biggest thing I have taken away from these two years at Roma is the fact I grew as a goalkeeper.
It's not about improving when you play; it's every day, in training, you have to work on every aspect of your game, and that's something I've really enjoyed.
If you have a game where you're under pressure, obviously there are going to be a lot of shots on target, and you're going to make saves, but you can't say you played well in a game where you concede five goals. It's ridiculous.
I would never say I give less to Roma than I do to Arsenal; it is just that the emotion is different.
It is not very good for your head if you go up and down and up and down. I want to try to keep going up, with my quality and with my decisions that I make.
Football is something I enjoy doing, something I'm well-paid to do, and obviously that's a great privilege, but I'm just trying to be happy, and if there's an opportunity to do something fun, then I'll just do it. I don't hold back; I just want to be a regular guy.
I think when you play with the same defence, you sort of understand each other's body language, and you read off each other, and it's much, much better.
When I came to Arsenal, I was on a scholarship earning £80 per week away from my family.
You'll always find that goalkeepers are a team within the team, and I've always had good relationships with the others, which is important because nobody understands the mindset of a goalkeeper like the other goalkeepers.
Accepting that my time with Arsenal was over was difficult because I never imagined leaving.
