 TH14 enjoys life at Highbury by JFD
on 18/10/00 at 01:21
this is story 56 of 104 in this topic to date
Stolen from today' s France Football, a long interview of TH14 who, once again reiterates his love for England and Arsenal, or is it Arsenal and England? A few quotes, roughly translated :

"I' ve found here what I was looking for. I' m not at home but I feel home here" His brother Willy confirms that by saying that when in Italy, El Tel came back home in Paris as soon as possible. Now he urges his brother to come in London. The first times for TH were hard to live : "Maybe I' ve dreamt too much to play for 'that' club. Moreover Arsène asked me to play upfront, when there were the likes of Kanu, Bergkamp, and Suker. And everyone kept on telling me of Nico. I missed so many opportunities in front of goal (in the training sessions, Ed) that I wondered : Bug*er, I won' t failed twice after the Juve fiasco [...] As soon as I realized there were no point in complaining of physical challenges to the refs, as soon as I had Keown marking me during the training sessions, I 've learned that every ball is worth a fight. At the beginning, I even thought MK was after me"

One thought for the fans : "Even if I' m playing here for more than one year, I' m still impressed by the fans"

Last, but not least, here' s a summing up of Mr. le Boss comments on TH14, still 'courtesy' of France Football :

"He' s still a kid, for his spontaneity and freshness : he ' s the same person I' ve coached 6/7 years before, althought during this time he had lost the killing instinct I knew he had before he was asked to play on the wings. He just needed time and confidence, but I' d like to think he' s not obsessed to score : One genuine scorer is selfish, and therefore doesn' t play for the team"
