If he had decided to stay for 10 more years no one would have been against it.” Looking to the future, however, the attacking midfielder is confident that Arsenal can put a disappointing season behind them and focus on a swift return to Europe's top club competition.“Our priority was qualification for the Champions League, but unfortunately we didn't manage that.  “We fought for it but anything can happen in football. We'll focus next season and return to the Champions League in two years.”</blockquote>
