Alexander Hleb has hinted that he could stay at Arsenal after revealing that the Premiership is the best league in the world. The Gunners midfielder has been linked with a host of clubs and his agent is desperate to secure a move for his client. Barcelona and Inter Milan are both reportedly interested in him.

  • "I have learned in England that there is still so much to improve," Hleb told Frankfurter Allgemeine.



    "I have always dreamed of playing in a great club. Now I have learned that it is not so easy and a lot of work.



    "The first year was a killer. I felt very lonely. It was clear that The Premier League would be a challenge - but with this pace, I have not expected this. The Bundesliga is still a good league, but a season in England feels like two in Germany.



    "I will tell you an example: When I was here at the beginning, everything went chop chop, so fast. The pace was madness, even in training. I look for the ball in front of me, then where I can play it - when I looked down again the ball was gone.
