Arsenal midfielder Emmanuel
Eboue has explained the reason for throwing his shirt into the
crowd during a pre-season match.
Last season, Eboue was jeered and booed by Gunners fans and was
on the outer at the club, but after some tough times, he bounced
back and decided to give his shirt to the fans to say thank you for
letting him stay.
“I am happy here. When I threw my shirt into the crowd in
pre-season I just wanted to give it to the fans. That was it. I
never said I wanted to move,” Eboue said.
The Ivory Coast international added that he believes
Arsenal can improve greatly this
season as the squad is extremely close.
“This year we are more together and have more solidarity in our
team. For me personally, I think it is important to be like this
and if we give our best we can win something this year,” he
added.
“We go out together and do things together. This is important to
have because we are young and it's much better to speak together
and get close together. It’s very important.”
