Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta has said he knows there is a level of pressure that comes with working at the London club and he agrees that the team has to win soon.

Fans have witnessed signs of encouragement under the Spaniard, but there are still lots of things that need rebuilding in the team.

He added that there are a lot of things he is looking to implement at his new club and he has seen signs of progress.

His words ahead of the FA Cup fourth-round trip to Bournemouth, “We’re going to fight for every competition that we’re involved in,”

“I know what it means to this club to win that competition and we need to get back to winning.

“We need to get back to being up there and having everybody talking about us. We need every competition to try and do that.”

“A lot of things [have changed] that I wanted to implement, not just towards the players but around the club, in terms of the culture. I’m seeing very good signs in progress.

“A lot of things about our way of playing and our style as well, even though the circumstances in some of the games have made it a little bit more difficult than expected. But in general, I can see the direction towards what I wanted a month ago.

“I think that one of the important things is creating that connection again with the fans. It’s a long time ago, and these people have been here for a long time, [since we have] seen the fans react and support the team how they did against Chelsea [in a 2-2 draw]. It was incredible and in some stages

“The amount of support they gave was incredible in difficult circumstances and I’m so proud that they’re feeling a little bit closer to the team now.”
