I thought he left Arsenal because he found it difficult to settle in England.

 

Exactly my thoughts, plus he didn't like defenders kicking lumps out of him. Can't see him wanting to come back to the Premiership.

 

Unless some idiots offer him a ridiculously inflated contract, of course.... :nufc:
