Mikel Arteta has received backing from Arsenal legend and former manager George Graham.
The Gunners have spent almost £120million this summer and are looking stronger than last season.
They started off the season with a 2-0 win over Crystal Palace last week.
George Graham who is regarded as the second most successful manager in the club’s history behind only Arsene Wenger believes Mikel Arteta has done an incredible job in Arsenal’s transition period.
Graham said in an interview with New Journal: “I think Arteta has done a very good job since he’s come to the club. It was at a transition period.
“He’s bringing a certain philosophy to the club which he learned under [Pep] Guardiola at Manchester City – some of the possession play is really fantastic. It’s great to watch, I love watching it.
“Unfortunately, they just missed out on the top four last season but I really like the way they play.
“I hope they do well this season. I want them to qualify for the Champions League. The only problem is the standard is so high. Liverpool, Manchester City and even Chelsea are top, top teams and Arsenal have got to compete with them, which I’m sure they will.”
