opera.com 2024/5/9

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has revealed that he has been seeking advice from the club's legendary former manager, Arsene Wenger, on how to win the Premier League title, according to Daily Post. As the Gunners aim to end their 19-year wait for the top-flight crown, Arteta is drawing on Wenger's vast experience and knowledge to gain an edge in the title race.

Wenger, who won three Premier League titles during his 22-year tenure at Arsenal, has been a valuable source of guidance for Arteta, who is seeking to make history by becoming the first Arsenal manager to win the title since Wenger himself in 2004.

According to Arteta, Wenger's advice has been simple yet profound: "He told me, 'You have to find a way to win, even if it's by a small margin. Sometimes it's not about playing the best football, it's about finding a way to win.'"

Arteta has also emphasized his desire for his team to make their own history, rather than relying on past successes. "We can't rely on what happened 10 or 15 years ago. We have to create our own history and our own legacy," he said.

This mindset is evident in the way Arsenal has been playing this season, with a young and dynamic squad that is hungry for success. While seeking advice from Wenger, Arteta is also keen to put his own stamp on the team and create a new legacy at Arsenal. His commitment to developing young players and playing attractive football has already won over many fans, and a title win would be the perfect way to cap off an impressive first season in charge.
