Wrighty said he was the first Male figure in his life that was a positive influence.

On the one hand I wish this hadn’t been filmed and was just between the two of them. On the other this always brings tears to my eyes.

As an Arsenal forward Wright was more than alright. When people care it makes all the difference.
