Chamakh: I am not a selfish striker
Marouane Chamakh has been speaking to the Arsenal magazine about his style of play and what he can bring to the Arsenal team this season.
The Moroccan earned himself a reputation of being a goalscoring target man in France during his time with Bordeaux, but Arsenal's new signing is hoping he can contribute more to the side than just goals.
Chamakh believes his abilities in link-up play will fit the style of football that Arsenal play well.
He said: "I love scoring goals, it is my job, but I am not obsessed. I am not what you call a very selfish striker, I am very collective in my game.
"I love playing for the team, working hard for the team and help to make other people shine too.
"It will not be easy to get in the team here because of all the great players we have, but I think I can add value to the team.
"I won't have any trouble to fit into the Arsenal style of play, but I can bring something more too with long balls towards me if we are struggling during a game because I am strong in the air.
"With my height and qualities in the air, playing in England was always the best choice for me.
"I know I still have a lot of hard work to do to perform well in the Premier League, but I am very motivated and hungry to do well."
