When I returned to Armenia after four months in Brazil, I was still quite skinny and weak, but I had technique and skill.
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.
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.
In 1989, when I was just a baby, we moved to France because of some conflicts that were brewing in Armenia.
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.
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.
