BASRA, IRAQ - OCTOBER 18: People gather around a Land Rover as it arrives at the village Al Houta on October 18 2008 near Basra, Iraq. The trip by the 51 Sqn Royal Air Force Regiment Force Protection Wing was part of a 'key leader engagement' (KLE) visit to the village close to the Basra Airbase to recruit local labour and engage with the village shiek. Visits of this type are seen as key in efforts to continue winning the support of the local Iraqi population. Although improved security in the region has brought some benefits such as improved trade and commerce, much of the infrastructure remains in a poor state of repair.

It is true that I said I admire Milan for their rich history and the way they play football but that is as far as the story goes. I am honoured to be wearing the captain’s armband for Arsenal and I am 100 per cent committed to this Club. My future is here. 
This is not going to be an American coming in with no understanding of Arsenal looking to make it a Disneyfied version of Arsenal Football Club ... This is an Englishman who grew up with the game, who had a deep understanding of Arsenal Football Club and is looking to provide modern sports business practices, but at the same time, providing custodianship for the traditions of the club and for the benefit of the fans.
We had six one-on-one's with the keeper and did not score ... If you have that many you have to question whether you can qualify for the next round. This team has a lot to learn. You have to be efficient from start to finish against a side like Burnley who were the best team we have come against in the cup this season.
If they had scored early on then it would have been a massive task so it was a great credit to the lads and big Kev; he scored two great goals tonight
Why not? Anything can happen in football. With a good draw and a little bit of luck then who knows. We'll see who we get. It's a massive game for the club because it's the semi-finals now. It doesn't really matter whoever we get. We'll probably be underdogs.
