“Ledley King would get the ball off you without you even noticing he’s the only defender in England who doesn’t hold onto you, and he sometimes still gets the ball off my feet easily.”

I don’t like to plan anything.

I’m obsessed by the idea of making my mark on history. And Arsenal is my paradise.

My dad always taught me to never be satisfied, to want more and know that what is done is done.

Being seen as the best striker in Europe doesn’t spur me on-it’s helping my team to success. That’s my only aim. I’m not a machine.

When I go home, sometimes, even when I had an amazing game, I always think about what I missed.

I like to score a proper goal, you know – a passing move.

You learn from your mistakes.

It’s not about me, it’s about how I can help my team to achieve more. And I do that through scoring goals.

It’s difficult to talk about Pele because I didn’t see him.

I may be French, but I’m playing for Arsenal.

And I don’t really like golf. I know a lot of English footballers play, but I know that if I go with the club to play, sooner or later I will end up trying to smash the ball with my foot.

I have to say that when I was young, when any politician was talking I wasn’t even interested. Maybe they were saying some nice stuff, but then if you put Michael Jordan on TV, I was interested!

I’ll never forget the club or him I don’t see Arsenal without Arsene Wenger.

I can’t stay in the box and wait for the ball. I can’t – I would die.

People always see the goals, and for me, strikers are not only about scoring goals.

Quite simply, it is true that I can be a pig! It is not a lie to say that. Sometimes, I feel that I am in the right even when I am wrong.
