Flamini: I'm not Gattuso

Arsenal midfielder Mathieu Flamini has denied suggestions that he is a similar playing to Ivan Gattuso of Milan as the two sides go head to head tonight in the Champions League, instead insisting he is his own man.

"I don't think so," he told The Independent, when quizzed on whether it was a fair comparison.

"It's true they call me it and he's a great player. I don't want to sound disrespectful to the guy because he's amazing but I think I'm a different player to him. I'm more attacking.

"We try and play a little more football. And, anyway, I want to make my own name in the football world."
