Mikel Arteta was a proud man watching his Arsenal team snatch a 3-2 thriller at Emirates.
“The best thing is the spirit we showed after coming back from Europe – three games in seven days. And coming back after we went behind. The resilience they showed after they were absolutely shattered,” Arteta told Sky Sports.
“Sead Kolasinac had a shoulder problem. Everybody was cramping.
”We could only change two players. We had to defend very, very deep.
“Leno was really good. In the right moment he saved us.”
Arteta then went on to praise his captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
“It was an incredible amount of work Aubameyang was doing,” Arteta added.
”Before I took over I had my questions about him but he showed his commitment. I wanted him to show if he wanted to do it and do it physically.
“Aubameyang is our most important player, no doubt the impact he has in this team. We will have to convince him to stay with us.
“Winning three games in seven games. Sure it is my best week.”
