    <div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Bacary Sagna may have enjoyed one of the best debut seasons in recent years but he is not resting on his laurels.

    The right back is well aware of so-called second season syndrome and hopes to inoculate himself by winning a trophy with Arsenal in the coming campaign.

    Speaking from the team's training camp in Austria, the muscular 25-year-old intends to barge aside any lingering doubts with the same positive attitude that helped him excel last term.

    When I arrived people told me that the first season would be very difficult and you had to adapt he said. But why wait? Why not play straight away?

    I just tried to do my best for the team and I was voted the best right back in the Premier League. But now I would like to achieve other things. Why not lift a cup?

    I know I have to confirm [my first-season form] but I feel confident and good in this team. I want to do a lot of things. I want to score and be more decisive now. I will try to do it.

    Twelve months ago, Sagna was a rookie in a position where Arsenal already had options, could he have imagined his first campaign going any better?

    No, he replied flatly. I did not know anything about English football when I arrived, only what I saw on TV. But I was not scared and adapted very quickly because of my team-mates and work of the staff.

    Everything was good for the first season and I thank the people who helped me. But now I want to fulfil more of my ambitions.</div>

    When Bacary joined Arsenal, I thought it was one of Wenger's worst signings. I just had that sort of feeling. Well, I was totally blown away, and he's now my 2nd favorite defender (after Toure of course). Lets hope he can play like he did last season.

    He is a tough defender, and he never gives up on the ball.
