Christos Tzolis on what surprised him at Arsenal:
“How well organised everything is. From media to training to the restaurant upstairs, everything is top quality…the demanding in training, in the gym, even runs, is so high and top level.”
on the biggest change in terms of culture at Arsenal:
I think it's such a big difference in how big Arsenal is because it's a worldwide team and it's one of the biggest teams in the world. It's crazy how many supporters are coming, even in the hotel, in the stadium and outside when we are on the bus. It's a big difference from my previous clubs. And how well it's organised, the club, in the training ground, the stadium and everything. I think it's top level and that makes the team also very big in terms of that. I think that's the most big difference I had.
on the most unlikely bromance in the squad:
I think Kai and Viktor. They are very close. That's nice to see because they play in the same position. Both are very good guys and they are good friends. Also, Viktor is only here one year and Kai has more years. So I didn't expect that they are going to be so close when I signed here.
on eating healthy and cheat meals:
Actually, we really take care of our nutrition. My usual breakfast, I could say, is omelette with avocado, more or less, or sometimes porridge because I want to change the breakfast. Cheat meals... maybe after the game I can have a cheat meal. I like some sweets after the game. Maybe I can have a brownie or something like this. But nothing crazy. It's important to eat healthy.
