Lokonga: 'I'd rather play 20 minutes at Arsenal than always play elsewhere.'

Albert Sambi Lokonga says he is satisfied being a bit-part player at Arsenal than playing regularly elsewhere. “Honestly, it’s difficult. I’m at one of the best clubs in England," he told La Derniere Heure (relayed by HLN & Sport Witness).

"I could have played somewhere else every weekend, but that wouldn’t have been the right solution for me. I develop better with 20 minutes of playing time at Arsenal than always playing elsewhere but always winning with 3 or 4-0.”

The Belgian has just five starts under his belt (3x Europa League, 2x Premier League). His last appearance in the Premier League was a 15 minute cameo against Tottenham.

With the Gunners returning to the Europa League on Thursday against PSV, Lokonga could get another opportunity.
