‘We are very excited to be playing back in Europe again after a difficult season where we had to earn our right to play here through winning the FA Cup’. It’s a big bonus for us. We want to make the best out of it and every competition that we are involved in. Our aim is to try to win it. Arteta commented.
He reacted really well on as to wether Ghanaian Star Partey will start or not. Partey came on and look strong and confident [against Man City] and he added something positive to the team. It was a very short turnaround for him since he joined the team, he had a day, a day-and-a-half only in training. He has done a few more training sessions and he looks ready to start. The Gunners manager revealed it at the press conference today.
