Tomas: "I Will Do My Best..."

Tomas Rosicky has stated that he would love to have played alongside Robert Pires. Speaking after his wonder goal last night, 'Little Mozart' had this to say...

"At first, I thought the shot was going into the crowd but when it went in it made me very happy,"

"I scored a goal like it at the World Cup but I think this one is better. It was higher and I enjoyed this one more."

"For my country, I have scored quite a few goals. At Dortmund I wasn't so successful and averaged five goals a season so I know from my position I have to score more. I want to try to score more goals for Arsenal."

He also went on to praise our former number 7...

"Robért Píres was a player that I have always liked. When I watched Arsenal, I always liked watching him because he is a very good player, similar to David Beckham.

"On the one hand, I wanted to play with him but I also knew that if he stayed then Arsenal probably wouldn't have bought me.

"I know Píres scored a lot of goals and I will try to do my best, but I think he is more prolific than I am. I will do my best to be productive.

"But it doesn't matter who scored, what's important is that we won. However I am very happy to have scored so early on for Arsenal."
