Mikel Arteta has managed to put Arsenal in the title race from last season.
Former Premier League star, Rio Ferdinand has sent a message to Arsenal’s heartbroken players after not winning the Premier League this season. It happened for the second consecutive time that missed out glory.
The North London club were so close to being champions, having taken the title race to the final game of the season. Pep Guardiola’s side became the champions for the fourth consecutive season.
Mikel Arteta has managed to put Arsenal in the title race from last season. The same side was even struggling to get European qualification. They are now going head-to-head with Man City.
He said, as quoted by Eurosport: “There is no words that can be said that will be any consolation to these players, it’s a tough moment, they will have wounds that will be open for the whole summer. These things take a long time to get over, but you have to use every experience.
“A bad experience is not the be all and end all, you have to turn it into a positive. Mikel Arteta works a lot on the mental side of the game behind the scenes and he will be tuning into that going into the new season.”
