When I went to Seattle, it was quite a quiet town and we made it the biggest soccer following in America. We didn't have the paparazzi, though, and I needed that at the time.

I lived on being a quick player and my hamstring was breaking every time I made a quick move. I wondered what the hell was going on.

Every time I sprinted 100 per cent, my hamstring broke. But I knew if I didn't sprint 100 per cent, I could keep on playing, so that's what you do. I was just lucky it was discovered in America and I haven't had one problem since. I feel I can run past people again and that feels nice.

I had hip surgery in America because I'd had problems during my last two years in Europe. They said out there that my hip was broken and I didn't know about it.

I won almost everything there is to win and I look back with great memories.

Clubs have always wanted to buy me during the summer but I have always stayed loyal because I wanted to stay at Arsenal.

There were a lot of reasons why I wanted to leave Arsenal.

I have always dressed to please myself, not other people. I don't care what they think.

You can be yourself in London. If you are a bit different in the way you dress or look it is no problem.

The problem in Sweden is that, when the players are younger, they are not allowed to develop their own style and skills.
