Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said that he is excited ahead of the new season. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
Stressing that securing consecutive Premier League titles for the first time in the club’s history is on his mind, Arteta stated that he can seize the opportunity to create history at Arsenal.
Mikel added that the collective ambition can be achieved if everyone at the club is on one page.
His words, “I’m very excited. We already have some dreams about the competition again with the Community Shield.
It’s a new season, new expectations. We have the opportunity to do something we haven’t done before at this football club, to win it back to back and that is the ambition. It’s not personal, it’s the collective ambition that we have and the ambition of the club. It’s a beautiful challenge.
It was different. Obviously I know Enzo [Maresca] really well but obviously the relationship I built with Pep when we were with each other. The amount of headaches and sweats he has provided to me over the last six or seven years to try to catch their level. He’s been an absolute inspiration, he’s left a mark on this league forever and he made all of us better.”
On potential signings, “When we show ambition at the club it has to come from the very top and I think the ownership has been very supportive with everything we are doing at the club. The motivation is always there to be better. If we can identify the talent to make us better then we have to do it but we have to focus on what we have in house to make sure they evolve, grow and be better.
You can see how crazy and unpredictable the league is. It’s better not to talk too much, be prepared, be open and hopefully we can wrap up the transfer window in a really positive way.”
