Mikel Arteta: Aston La Vista To The Title?

He has nailed the structure for sure and showing balls in not selecting Xhaka. That was a pretty big call. And defensively we were totally flawless.

Going full Mourinho at the end was a bit weak. Had the beating of them all game and just allowed them to attack us for 10-15 minutes.

Never thought he would be this defensive orientated.

Swear makes you think we signed Allegri as our manager at times.

Arteta got it right today and he should be lauded for it. The team moved the ball quicker and we were solid defensively. I was very pleased with the performance.

One thing i have noticed is that we have gotten significantly better at passing the ball around the back even when under pressure. I am not a fan of it but Arteta has figured out the phases and zones the players can play in and it is working. I must give him credit for this.

Important to remember how tough the fixtures have been so far this season
I think Arsenal fans have been really unfair towards Arteta and the team in recent weeks and I kept pointing to the fixtures.

Our forwards have some questions to answer but I think Arteta deserves credit - whether people like it or not he is carrying out step 1, making us hard to beat.

Leicester result feels very frustrating now but great character shown by Mikel and the team to respond with that today in what was in many ways a must win game.
Certainly don't feel like we're going to go away to the big teams and get hammered anymore.

Arteta if you’re reading this...I will forgive you this season if we get top 4 but next season 4-3-3 is a must my g.

Continues to show the potential we all know he has but still...chance creation hmm.

Wasn’t a fan of Pepe not starting but that’s probably just preference. Definitely wasn’t a fan of retreating into our own box, we were actually starting to grow into the game again before the penalty.

Onwards and upwards, was a must win game for him and he did it.
