Arsenal star Gael Clichy insists he would not contemplate leaving the club, even if they failed to make the UEFA Champions League next season.
The Gunners are in a real battle to make the top-four, and they currently trail Aston Villa by three points.
Reports claim that a mass exodus would follow at Emirates Stadium if Arsenal failed to make the Champions League.
But Clichy insists he has had no thoughts about leaving the club.
"I signed a new contract last summer and six years I have been here, and even if this year has been difficult the fans have been behind us," he told Sky Sports News.
"I love Emirates, I love the club, and if I could be a Gooner for many years that would be my pleasure."
Clichy also doubted reports which have suggested manager Arsene Wenger could be tempted away from the club, with Manchester City said to be keen on the French tactician.
"I think Arsenal is part of his life and I can't see him moving to another club," he continued.
"But we never know what can happen and if he moves on we will see what will happen, but I am confident that the boss will stay and all the players will stay and fight."
The French international also stressed that Arsenal can still make an impact this season.
"It is difficult to cope with when you have such players as Theo Walcott, Tomas Rosciky, Eduardo just back now, and Cesc Fabregeas out," he said.
"All those players we miss and when they are back it will be a big bonus and big for the team and we will show everyone that this season is not over and we can get something."
