Mikel Arteta addresses the pressure he has to deal with at Arsenal.
The 39-year old manager has struggled at Emirates since his arrival in December 2019.
He started off the new campaign horribly this year but has managed to take an upturn with four straight victories in all competitions.
Mikel Arteta has welcomed the pressure that helps to continue with delivering performances at Arsenal.
“I think that feeling is very necessary at a big club because every defeat is a crisis and it should be a crisis, and you have to deal with that pressure,” Arteta said.
“If you want to be the best you have to cope with that and realise that excellence is the only way and the only thing that is expected. Anything else isn’t good enough.
“It is the history we have. We have a great history because we have that competitive edge.
“We have that mentality as well and that willingness to look further and have that ambition. To achieve that you need to be able to deal with that.”
