🗣️ “I've been honest a lot of times and said I was probably technically one of the worst in the team when I first joined. When I first went I could barely do two kick-ups.' 🗣️ 'I had to improve very quickly. By the end of it I was one of the best.'
debut came during a 6-1 win over Southampton in May 2003, and he made one appearance during the Gunners Invincible season before moving to Middlesbrough in 2008. , Hoyte spoke about idolising Ian Wright when he was scouted as a striker as a child.
“A few scouts - Dave Holden and Steve Rowley - came by to watch me on the Sundays and then spoke to my dad and invited me down to a training session at Highbury.”“When I scored, I was celebrating like him [Wright] and that's why my favourite number is eight now. I had posters of him on my walls. So for me, that's a huge reason why I wanted to play for Arsenal.”
He continued: “I've been honest a lot of times and said I was probably technically one of the worst in the team when I first joined the academy. When I first went I could barely do two kick-ups, I had to improve very quickly my technical ability and what I was able to do with the ball. By the end of it I was one of the best.
He added: “[The technical education] was the perfect blend with my sporting background - my mum and dad in athletics, my mum going to the Olympics and Commonwealth Games, being sprinters - it really helped.
