Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta has come out to admit that he hasn’t treated Eddie Nketiah fairly at the club. He recently had his say after the striker fired two goals in Arsenal’s massive win over Chelsea, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, what Eddie did against Chelsea is what he has been doing for the last 10 months, and no one, including him, noticed his efforts and zeal.
Arteta added that he surely should’ve been playing the youngster more, and he’ll try to adjust henceforth.
His words, “What Eddie has done tonight is because of what he has done for the last 10 months and no-one has noticed,”
“I said to him I haven’t been fair. I should have been playing him more. We have other issues as well and that has not been easy. But he deserved completely what happened to him tonight.”
“When you look at him in training and how humble and hungry he is, good things happen to good people. If I’m happy for anyone it is especially him because I know what he has been through.”
“The same with Elneny and Rob Holding. That is why we won the game today. I love the spirit of these players. When you lose matches you get criticised but for these players it is worth it. They are really growing.”
