It’s just flattering that the guy who spent over 20 years there thinks I have the quality to manage a big club like Arsenal one day.Getty2

I have a clear idea of what I want to achieve, and I will try to take the right decision to get to the top.I want to take my time to get there, but I would love one day to manage one of the teams I played for in Italy or England.When you have an exciting league like in England, you always want to get involved.
