Emile Smith Rowe

“Unai has been a real big help to me personally because he is always talking to me after training. And as a team, he is always telling us, having a lot of meetings after training and even before matches. I think it's really good for the team.”

“There's loads of stuff we should be drinking before a game but before I was a bit too lazy.”

“I'm happy to play anywhere. Maybe it is inside, maybe it's wide.”

“I'm normally a pretty casual guy, as I'm a big tracksuit person - so I'll normally just wear trackies most days.”

“Aubameyang definitely has the most different style.”

“It's hard to explain the feeling. Just knowing that you have scored the goal and everyone is looking at you.”

“I feel like I've grown and matured into a stronger and more confident person.”

“I try to know what I'm doing before I do it, try to know where I'm going to pass it even before I have the ball.”

“Even when I was growing up in the academy there were always young players getting chances - Jack Wilshere, Alex Iwobi - so it is good at Arsenal.”

“When I'm with England, everyone's always talking about fashion and asking what we're all wearing. Everyone's trying to get their hands on the most limited things.”

“Being at a massive club like Arsenal, we know there is so much competition. It is always going to be challenging, it is always going to be difficult to cement your place in the team.”

“I've been abroad and I've been in the Championship and I feel like it's developed me so much on and off the pitch.”

“I think it's every kid's dream to play in a World Cup.”

“Before I went to Arsenal, I went on trial at Chelsea through one of my team mates at my local team. He was on trial there already and he put in a word for me. I don't know how he managed it but I got a trial at Chelsea but I didn't get it.”

“You might not even realise it at the time but you need people to look up to who are setting a good example.”

“I grew up in Croydon, I've been to Chessington World of Adventures, Thorpe Park and Alton Towers. I love it.”

“Coming through the academy all you want to do is just play for your club and when you are not getting the opportunities there is only so much you can take.”

“Christmas is a big time of year for children and if I can help with that, then I want to do it. They see us as role models, and to be honest, sometimes even as superheroes. Kids need to see that there are similar people from similar backgrounds who are on the right pathway.”

“I think Spurs were interested when I was about 15 or 16. I wasn't that interested to be honest, being an Arsenal fan, although it's good to have all these teams interested.”

“Every player has told me you've got so much ability, so much quality just keep focused and keep working hard. To get that off world class players - even Mesut Ozil has told me that before and Pierre-Emerick Aubaemyang as well - is just unbelievable.”
