“With Arteta now they’ve got a hell of a ꦫmanager who’s 💟going to go on to do great things,” he told .

“His tactical awareness and how he sees the game is incredible. I didn’t realise how much I didn’t know about football until 𓆏I’d been in a meeting with him a few times and you start to think that ꦆhe sees football differently to how anyone has seen it in the world around me.”

Arsenal boss closing in on a piece of history

Arteta has definitely proved hi🐟mself during his time at Arsenal. Of course, he won the FA Cup in his first few months in charg𝓡e of the club.

A tougher year followed. And there have been plenty of times when, from the outside, you would not have be🐟en at all surprised to see Arteta sacked.

But Arsenal kept their faith in the former Manchester City assistant. And they have been rewarded. They initially came very close to qualifyinꦍg for the Champions League. And then last season happened.

Arsenal appear to be in title contention again this year. And Arteta is in the mix to become the first boss to win the Premier League title in theirও first manageri🅷al job.

𒀰Clearly, Rob Holding would not be at all surprise👍d if Arteta now managed to get Arsenal across the line.
