Emmanuel Eboue feels he's now fully accepted by Arsenal fans.
The defensive utility is now a fans' favourite after a difficult few months last season.
"I have this team in my heart, in fact it does not matter if I don't play, I still want us to win from the bottom of my heart," said Eboue, signed from Belgian club Beveren in 2005 and who signed a contract extension at the end last year.
"This is a team that can win something, for sure. If we continue to play our football and with confidence the side has, I certainly believe that.
"I will be ready to give everything I can to try to make this season something special."
