When I returned to Armenia after four months in Brazil, I was still quite skinny and weak, but I had technique and skill.
When I was six years old, my parents told me that we were moving back home to Armenia. I didn't really understand what was happening. My father had stopped playing football, and he was at home all the time.
In the '80s, before I was born, my dad played in the old Soviet Top League in our home country of Armenia. He was a small but very quick striker. 'Soviet Soldier' magazine actually honoured him with its 'Knight of Attack' award in 1984.
In 1989, when I was just a baby, we moved to France because of some conflicts that were brewing in Armenia.
Not so many Armenian players are given the chance to play in the Champions League, and this is really important for me, because I want to do everything to impress the children who are watching me playing.
I am very excited - it's a big opportunity for me to play for Manchester United, a new challenge for me. I will try to do my best.
