Gooner Carl Jenkinson "pinching" himself over Arsenal move

Carl Jenkinson admits he's still pinching himself over his summer move to Arsenal.

As Arsenal have improved, so has Jenkinson and Arsene Wenger has kept faith with his summer signing at right-back while Bacary Sagna recovers from a broken leg.

"Sometimes, I just have to take a step back and really appreciate where I am," Jenkinson told Arsenal Player.

"From me to come to where I was to playing in the Premier League is obviously a big achievement for me.

"But the main thing I have to pinch myself about is that I'm actually playing for Arsenal.

"I can't really portray how special that is for a fan of the club and for someone who comes from a family that loves Arsenal so much.

"It's just a great thing to be becoming a part of Arsenal's history.

"Long may it continue."
