Arteta on Lewis-Skelly: “I've been tough on him. He had a spectacular season last year when he jumped into the first team. He had some difficult moments after that, but he stayed very humble, very focused, aligned when we wanted to do and I knew he was ready. “He's been showing in training every day the opportunities that he had to play, he's done it and today he really stepped up and I thought he had an incredible performance. Reporter: What was the sort of thinking behind that and why do you think it's taken this long to play him there? Arteta: “Because probably I don't have a clue. Maybe I should have done it earlier, I don't know. But I have to do things when I believe that the player is ready, the team is ready and the opponent is the right one to play with him in that position. “We've done it today, it's the first time, it was a big risk because I knew what was going to happen. If it works, it's great. would have lost the game, what would have happened, how do you play a kid at this age in this scenario in a position he hasn't played all season. I knew that but I had the feeling it was the right game for him.”

🗣️ Mikel Arteta on why it took so long for Myles Lewis-Skelly to start in midfield: “Because, erm… probably I don’t have a clue! Maybe I should have done it earlier, I don’t know. It was a big risk, if we lost the game, what would have happened?” ❌😅

🤬🤬🤬 knew he'd buckle ! Home side gets that pen!

This is what we have to look forward to

The Victor Osimhen links don't really make sense tbh. Arteta could've got him two years ago. We could've got him last year too before he joined Gala. He's on some crazy wages. He's always been my number 1 striker target but just don't think it'll happen.

Mikel Arteta on why Norgaard has NOT played regularly: “Because these guys have been exceptional. I had to leave two players out of the squad [vs. Newcastle]. At the end, Mikel [Merino] is out & they were Christian & Richy [Calafiori], so that’s going to happen.” “As I said, if the Premier League allows us to have 20 or 22 players, we can have everybody involved & hopefully next season that will be the case.” ❌🇩🇰
