Following Arsenal’s 4-1 win over Fulham in the Premier League (PL) on Sunday, the Gunners head coach Mikel Arteta praised his side for displaying a stunning performance at the Emirates Stadium.
While addressing the post-match press conference, Arteta said that the Gunners have displayed a “great performance”. He added that they executed their plans well in the game, maintained a good intensity and played with “a lot of courage”.
“I think we had a great performance, big credit to the boys after just half a day to prepare for the game. The way they executed everything – the intensity, the commitment, the determination, the aggression and progression in everything that we were doing with the ball. They played with a lot of courage against the team and we got rewarded. I think we fully deserved to win the game,” Arteta said as quoted by Arsenal’s official website.
When asked about the Arsenal midfielder Jorginho’s role in the game, the head coach praised the Italian player and called him a “top player”. “He’s a top player, especially when the opponents have certain behaviours or certain set-ups. The way I can imagine the game, he is going to have a big impact, but I think you have to do it at this level and when he’s not playing consistently, credit to him because he was magnificent today, again,” he added.
Arteta was really impressed after seeing the home fans. The head coach also praised the fans for showing a great attitude and energy.
“Really impressive, thank you so much to everybody that turned that around with that attitude and that energy. Thanks for the club as well because it’s pushing that to generate as well this atmosphere at home and it makes a huge impact on the team, so thank you,” he added.
