After putting pen to paper on his new Arsenal contract, Ben White
admitted that there was no other place he would rather be playing
his football right now.
签下合约后本白表示他只想在阿森纳踢球,没有其他地方。
Our defender has extended his stay in north London which will
delight Gooners everywhere, as well as Mikel Arteta and Edu who
were alongside Ben to see the ink dry on his new deal - as they
were back in July 2021 when he first became an Arsenal player.
我们的后卫延长了他在北伦敦的合约,这让各地枪迷以及总教练阿特塔
和技术总监Edu都感到高兴,他们和班一起见证签下合约的墨水干涸—
—就像在2021年7月他成为阿森纳球员那一刻一模一样。
And while Ben laughs that the contract signing moment is always a
little strange, he is thrilled that it means he gets to continue
playing in our youthful side challenging at the top of the Premier
League and in the latter stages of the Champions League.
班笑说签约的时机总是有点怪时,但他还是很高兴,
他将继续和我们的年轻阵容一同挑战英超联赛和欧洲冠军联赛
Speaking after signing, he said: “I’m so happy – it’s been a
long journey, and amazing to sign again and be here for more
years. I’ve said before I wouldn’t want to be anywhere else, so
it’s perfect.
签约后说:“我很高兴——这是一段漫长的旅程,
再次签约并待上更多年真是太棒了。
我之前就说过我真的不想去别的地方,所以这是个完美的决定。”
“When you’re in that office, it’s a little more daunting but it
’s amazing to sign again and have the same feelings of pride It’
s a really good achievement.”
“当你在那办公室里有点可怕,但再次签下合约有着一样骄傲感真是太棒了,
这是一个很好的成就。”
After committing his future, Ben chatted with Gooner and YouTuber
Timbsy as they took Win the dog for a walk around the Sobha Realty
Training Centre, and he was asked when he first felt at home at
the club.
在承诺了自己的未来后,Ben和枪迷YouTuber Timbsy聊天,他们带着
Win 在 Sobha Realty 培训中心散步,
被问到第一次在俱乐部的感觉如何
“I’d probably say not until the pre-season after I joined,” Ben
revealed. “I feel like I’ve always done a year somewhere and
left again straight away to go on loan, or go back to Brighton for
a year and then come to Arsenal. It was the first time I’ve been
back-to-back and stayed somewhere. I think that was probably then
when I realised I’m here to stay, and to play.”
Ben透露:
“我觉得我总是在某个地方待了一年,
然后马上再次离开因为租借,或者回到布莱顿一年,
然后来到阿森纳。
这是我第一次连续待在同个地方。
我想那可能是我意识到我该留在这里继续踢球的时候。
And playing is something that Ben has done virtually more than any
other player since he joined the club. He has made 122
appearances out of a possible 134 in that period, and has sat out
just seven Premier League matches over the past three seasons.
加入俱乐部以来,Ben几乎比其他任何球员都出赛更多。
在此期间,他在134场比赛中上场122次,
过去三个赛季中,他只缺席了7场英超比赛。
In that time he has developed alongside a host of other hugely
talented youngsters to take us back into title contention and
return to the Champions League. He admits that the main reason why
he wanted to stay is he feels the sky is the limit when it comes
to what our squad can go on to achieve.
那段时间里,他与其他许多才华横溢的年轻人一起练球,带我们回到冠军争
夺战中,重返冠军联赛。 他承认他想留下来的主要原因是因为谈到我们
接下来继续取得的成就时,就觉得没有什么能挡下我们。
Reflecting on the past couple of campaigns, Ben added: “Last
season we did better than what people expected. I think there was
a little bit of belief that we could do it, and we didn’t get
what we wanted last season, but this season, we’ve started so
well. Coming in for pre-season, everyone was top and ready to go,
you could kind of tell in pre-season that we were going to be
another team this year.
在反思过去的几次活动时,班补充说:“上个赛季,我们做得比人们预
期的要好。 我想我们有些信念,相信我们可以做的到,
上个赛季我们没有得到我们想要的东西,
但这个赛季我们开始做的非常好。
季前赛热身,每个人的表现名列前茅都蓄势待发,
你可以在比赛里看出我们今年将脱胎换骨变成另一支球队。
“I think with the team, there’s not too much said about where we
want to be. I think everyone knows we’re in for the highest we
can, and I don’t think anything is too big for us to be able to
challenge and win. There’s no limit to what we can achieve.”
“我认为对球队来说对于我们的目标,不需做太多说明。
每个人都知道我们正达到所能达到的最高水准,
没有什么太大的困难是我们无法挑战和获胜的。
将来能取得的成就是没有限制的。”
