Bernd Leno's injury has changed my career. Other great goalkeepers - such as Iker Casillas - have got their big opportunities when the first-choice keeper was injured.

I'm at an age now where I have a newborn baby and me and my wife want to settle. I'm tired of going on loan.

When I went to Reading last season. I said to myself, 'This is my last loan.' My body was always tired at the end of the season from travelling and not knowing what I was going to be doing next, so I made that challenge to myself that it was my last loan and I had to do well.

But I believe I should have the chance to show how good I am at Arsenal.

Getting injured is a massive setback. When you look back at it, it makes you a better and a stronger person today, but at the time, it's hard to deal with.

About Mali, they came to my house. We spoke and after that, the guy posed for a picture giving me a Mali shirt. With Spain I didn't go because I was injured. When the time comes, you will see which team I decide.

Being injured has harmed me on and off the field in a lot of ways.

I've never pulled out of a fight, never not showed up to fight, so injured or not, I'm coming.

It's very strange getting out of the military, when you've lived in Iraq, and people you know are going overseas again and again. Some of them are getting injured.
