“We had two very important victories the day before, we also have a very good mood. We are ready for an important match against Manchester City.
I do not know if Edegor, White and Saka will play. We will find out about it just before the match.
Since I came to the club, there have been many changes. Tim (Lewis is the former CEO of Arsenal) goes, and I would like to say a few words about him, because I really liked working with him. I think he made a huge contribution to everything we have done over the past few years. As for Rich Harlik, I congratulate, to be CEO of this football club is a huge role. Welcome to the Board of Directors! I hope they make us better and help us with ideas and support for the club. In the end, this decision is Stan and Josh (Krenke), they gave us incredible support, so we are moving again.
It’s about winning again. We need to ensure stability in confrontation with one of the best teams in the world. This is a good test for us to evaluate your level.
The requirements that Guardiola puts forward to himself, the standards that he requires from all around, his desire to win, develop and improve is unique. Look at him, he always wants to learn something new. For me, he is the best trainer in the world, I have already said it. I was lucky to work with him and win with him, next to him. It’s always nice to see him again.
There will be many goals in this game. It was so before, in the last few years. They have changed quite a lot, especially in the protection line, they also have an aunt. We have made some changes in the midfield line, and that’s normal. Football has a certain trend related to how teams are protected.
Does PEP Manchester City rebuild? I don’t know. This is a question to him. But, obviously, what he has already done in this league is unprecedented. In my opinion, the level he has reached the APL is unprecedented and maintaining this level for ten years is something incredible. He has high demands, and he wants to continue to work because he believes that he can win again.
We have a wonderful future. This is the only thing I can say. I am very optimistic, and every time I talk to Stan and Josh, I see how determined they are, what are their plans, what are the visions of the future arsenal that people surround them. There is no doubt that great things are waiting for us, “Artet said.
The match between Arsenal and Man City will take place today at 6:30 pm Kyiv time.
