- Arteta said he is very proud of their seven matches, already where they want to be with one to go. They probably did not need the points, but had the hunger to prove what they are.
- Asked about Gabriel Jesus's two goals, Arteta said they have been missing him a lot. They now have different profiles in that position, and he said that only makes them better.
- Asked whether one striker scoring and the other coming off the bench to do the same is the perfect outcome of rotating, Arteta said that if he had to write it, that would probably be it.
- Arteta said it was their fourth consecutive away game in four competitions in 12 days, he thinks, which is crazy. They managed it because they have rotated and players feel important.
- Asked what beating those teams proves, Arteta said it shows the ambition and conviction that they can compete against any team. Then, he said, you have to do it on the day.
- Asked about reports a young player could leave on loan, Arteta said he is not getting the minutes he probably deserves and needs at his age. They will sit down this week and decide what is best for him.
“…I think the team look mature, very ambitious, emotionally very controlled as well in different parts of the match.”
