I've watched him all season. I take a lot of joy in what he does.\n\n\"He doesn't have to be ashamed of anything that he's done tonight. He had the bottle to go up there and take it.\n\n\"Okay, he missed it, but he was magnificent in the game. He's been a real leader for Arsenal.\n\n\"Eze as well, another player that you just love watching.\"\n\n### LATEST SPORTS NEWS:\n\n\n\n\n * Paris descends into chaos immediately after PSG beat Arsenal in Champions League final\n * Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta gives verdict on Noni Madueke penalty incident: 'Easily!'\n * Fights break out in crowd during Arsenal vs PSG Champions League final as security intervenes\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\n###\n\n\n\n\nIt was only Arsenal's second time in the Champions League final, after losing to Barcelona in 2006.\n\nAnother former Gunner, Jack Wilshere, insisted that he anticipates Arsenal to be back on the grandest stage of all soon.\n\nWilshere said: \"It'll take a while [to get over], but I'm pretty sure it's not going to take another 20 years to get to a final with this team, with Mikel in charge.\n\n\"Yes, it hurts right now, and you can see the players will be devastated, but when you look at the history and what [Manchester] City had to do to win it, they had to lose in the final.
