Bacary Sagna: "Arsenal's trophy drought is embarrassing; We're hungry for silverware"

Arsenal‘s Bacary Sagna is clearly frustrated with the lack of trophies, but has claimed that the Gunners have the quality to end the trophy draught this season.

A point behind Premier League leaders Chelsea, Arsenal face Stoke later today, and are still in the FA Cup, and Sagna is hoping for a successful end to the season.

“It would be my first trophy. I’ve been here for seven years, and we haven’t won anything so it’s a bit embarrassing for the club, the fans and ourselves as well,” Bacary said.

“As a player you want to be successful, show you have quality and when you don’t win you always wonder what’s happening. But it makes me even more hungry to do it.

“I know we have the quality to do it. Every day I think about it, every day I come training and make myself better and hope we can win something.

“It’s our ambition is to stay top of the league. We have a quality team to be successful at the end of the season but we must stay focused.

“But we have to learn from what happened in the past, everyone is ready to fight and show how much we want it.”

Sagna insists that the club’s lean spell has left the whole squad even more determined to win the title or the FA Cup this season.

The defender is out of contract at the end of the season, and Inter Milan seem to be showing interest in the player.

Sagna added: “I love Arsenal, I love playing for Arsenal, I love my team.

“Arsenal is the most followed team in France, and I remember I used to watch them when I was in France so it was a pleasure to play for them, so why leave?

“It’s great here. It was like a dream when I joined the club because I used to follow Arsenal when I was in France and then I had the opportunity to join them, and it’s a pleasure to play for the team.”
