Collison on West Ham debut: I didn't know what I was doing!

West Ham United midfielder Jack Collison faces Arsenal today - almost two years after making his senior debut against the Gunners.

Collison is keen to gain revenge for the 2-0 reverse he suffered on his first-team debut for the club at the Emirates Stadium on New Year's Day 2008.

"I went on that pitch and it felt like I didn't know what I was doing," Collison told the West Ham matchday programme. "It was all a blur. It was a great thing, though, for me to make my debut and be out there against top players like Cesc Fabregas. Since then I have done a lot of growing up on and off the pitch and I am sure I will give a much more mature display this time if selected."
