"Well, I hope it's still a long way off. I hope that I will still have a lot of time as a footballer, but yes, I keep in my head the thought that maybe one day I can become a coach. I really want to stay in soccer, but I honestly don't know how exactly yet.

I've learned from all the managers I've worked with in my career. They are all different, they all have something special, but they are all demanding. So demanding that they are obsessed with winning games. At the moment, I would say the best manager in the team is Jorginho. He has the best soccer brain. Everything he says really works and I learn from him too.

I would like my team to possess the ball and dominate. That doesn't mean you have to run less - it means you have to enjoy playing soccer and be aggressive without the ball. You need to be such a compact team, and a lot more - you can't list everything!", - Zinchenko said in an interview with Arsenal's official website.
