Arsenal fullback Nico Yennaris is determined to make it at Emirates.

The lifelong Gunner, who made an impressive Premier League debut against Manchester United in January, told this month's Official Arsenal Magazine that he has taken the advice of Club staff firmly to heart.

"I've always believed that what you put in is what you get out," said Yennaris.

"One of the coaches here once said to me that if you're going to fail, do so through your ability and not your work rate. I've stuck by that and thought that if it's not going to be, it can't be because I haven't tried.

"I've always been focused and worked very hard to give myself the best opportunity of succeeding."
