Meet Nick Lellenberg, host for a few nights in San Diego. Nick came up to Santa Ana for the fundraiser and invited me to head down to his place for a few nights to experience a slightly less pandemoniac California - I wasn't disappointed.
Nick helps to keep Arsenal America ticking over with news updates and features, but when he's working for actual money, he's an admissions tutor at one of the private schools in La Jolla (an affluent 'retirement community' north of SD).

Q. Why Arsenal?
When I was small I went to France every
Summer with my family and I grew up watching France in 1998 and 2000,
the French Contingent of Arsenal were in their prime. It was
mesmerising watching Arsenal play.
Q. Started Supporting Arsenal?
The first game I watched was the 4-1
win over Norwich in 2005. The only reason I was watching was because
my grandmother grew up in Norwich and I recognised the name of the
team. Of course, Henry scored a hat-trick and it was Arsenal that I
paid more attention to.
Q. Favourite all time Player?
Has to be Thierry Henry. Everybody
loves the goalscorer. I watched him when he was playing for France,
young and still learning.
Q. Favourite current Player?
Sagna. Unheralded. He broke his leg
twice in a year but he's been with us for eight years and he is a
workhorse, he never moans or gets caught up in the press for reasons
right or wrong and he's got amazing headgear.
Q. Favourite Arsenal moment?
Being in the away end at White Hart
Lane when we won 3-1 in 2007 was great, but my most memorable was
another away trip, this time to Milan at the San Siro (same season)
where we won 2-0 despite the odds being against us – no English
team had beaten AC Milan on their home turf until that evening.
Q.Where do you watch Arsenal in San
Diego?
The Blue Foot Bar & Lounge in North
Park. We have around 30 people to every game, we've been going for
around 18 months and we're growing all the time.
Q. Emirates or Highbury?
I never got to Highbury (I was one
season too late) so I guess it's got to be the Emirates.
Q. League Prediction?
Top 2. I'm not comfortable saying which
position (1 or 2) but I genuinely think we are at least runners up.
Q. Who will be Arsenal's player to watch this season?
Mertesacker has
been tearing it up. He's not very fast but he reads the game so well
that he doesn't need to be. He has the potential to be a captain.
