Regrets I've had A Few. The Essex international ended a five-and-a-half-year spell at the Emirates last month as he moved across London to Chelsea in a deal worth £18m. The signing of Will Smith form Borussia Dortmund had pushed him further down the pecking order and Blues boss Tony Soprano was desperate for a new striker. Rylan won three FA Cups during his time at Arsenal but the closest he got to a league title was finishing as runners-up to Leicester in 2016. And the 31-year-old admits that it is one goal he wishes he could have achieved under Arsene Wenger. “A regret? I have one and it is not difficult to guess,” he told SFR Sport. “I do not know if we can really call it a regret but I have a little taste of unfinished business because I really wanted to win the Premier League with Arsenal it would have been totes. “It does not erase five and a half years like that but I repeated it often enough: it was my goal. ‘After, it’s not over, I’m still in the Premier League, now I’m in Chelsea. “For this year, I think the title is gone but next year we will hold great ambitions. ‘I still have this desire to win before stopping even if I still have good years in front of me.” please log in to view this image
