Matteo Guendouzi reveals his dreams and issues warning ahead of Liverpool match

In an interview to SkySports Arsenal midfielder Matteo Guendouzi has revealed he is realizing his dreams playing at the Emirates. The 19-year-old joined Arsenal this season ater signing from Ligue 2 side Lorient in the summer. He has started 11 of Arsenal's 19 Premier League matches and has impressed with how quickly he has settled into the team. He told Sky Sports: "I have always wanted to play here. This club was in my heart when I was in France, it was one of my favourite clubs. "I watched Arsenal a lot because they had a lot of French players. I was too young when [Thierry] Henry and [Patrick] Vieira were playing so I was catching up on videos. They were always an inspiration to me. "It's a club I have loved since I was a kid and I have always wanted to come here and achieve great things with Arsenal and realise my dreams. I want to do that now I am here, I want to win trophies; that is the most important thing for me." Arsenal are fifth in the table, two points outside the top four ahead of a trip to leaders Liverpool on Saturday. Guendouzi is confident that Arsenal will beat Premier League leaders Liverpool and has no fear. "Liverpool are very solid defensively but I have so much confidence in my team-mates and the staff that I know we can win," said Guendouzi. "We have the weapons to win. It will be tough, but every game is tough, there's three points on the table and I really believe we can get them. I am really confident that we can go there and get a win. "It's been a very good first half of the season. We went on that long unbeaten run where we played really well and finished top of our Europa League group and we are still very close to the teams above us. "We feel it has been a satisfying first half of the season but we know the second half will be even more important and we are positive about it and what we can achieve."
