I do my job - I don't try to seek the spotlight; that's not my way.

I'm really excited by this opportunity to continue helping develop and work with some of the great young players we have coming through in the first-team environment and to work alongside Unai and his coaching team to help Arsenal win trophies.

I like entertaining football but, at the same time, you can't concede goals. That's a tricky balance to find.

Where I am from in Sweden was on the beach, so I love the sound of the water hitting the dock.

I was an underwear model for Calvin Klein for a few years. It is not something I wanted to do at first. I never regretted it, but I am a shy person, and to stand there buck naked in front of a camera was scary.

Some people thought I was crazy when I quit Europe to go to the U.S., but for me the quality of life and the place I live is important.
