Wright impressed with Arteta hiring set-piece coach

Mikel Arteta has been hailed by Ian Wright.

The Arsenal coach has done a smart thing by hiring set-piece coach Andreas Georgson and the move has been praised by Wright, the Arsenal legend.

The move has been clearly paying off as the Gunners pulled off a brilliant training ground free kick routine against Leicester to find their way back into the match which they eventually won.

It was a brilliant header from Luiz whose blunder earlier had cause Arsenal to go down 1-0. However, what was best to watch about the header was that the entire move seemed to have been pre-determined – something worked on in the training ground.

“It’s no secret Arsenal have a set piece coach. When you look at how that [Luiz’s goal] was worked, it was worked brilliantly,” Wright told Premier League Productions.

“You can see that Lacazette was there to clear out the space and pin their best header of the ball which is Jonny Evans.

“And that is the space where you see David Luiz definitely waiting for the space to be cleared. The ball has to be pinpoint and it’s fantastic. That’s why you get a set piece coach, to get those things working on the training pitch.”
