Arteta on if he was disappointed by Spurs: “No. I will never. You can never complain about the opponent. I can complain about what we haven’t done to get 90 points of 91 or whatever.”
Arteta on City’s 115 charges: “That’s something for the authorities to manage. It’s not for us. If they’re playing that means they can play and that’s not up to us.”
Arteta on if it’s the biggest week of his career: “It’s one of the biggest weeks for many of us. Now is the most important moment. Can’t wait for Sunday to be in front of us. Very optimistic for the outcome.”
Arteta on the players dealing with the pressure: “The only thing that we discussed is that we have to give ourselves the opportunity to live a beautiful day on Sunday where the dream is still alive. Once we’re there we have to live the moment. For the dream to happen we have to win and then we have to hope for West Ham to achieve that dream.”
Arteta on if he still believes: “I do. We are in the last day of the season playing for the Premier League. The PL trophy hasn’t been at the Emirates yet and it was built almost 20 years ago. We have to be optimistic. The trophy is going to be there and we have to do what’s in front of us.”
Mikel Arteta on contract due to expire in June 2025: “We will talk with the club about that at the end of the season”.
Two Premier League championship trophies were prepared at Emirates and Etihad in the final round of the season.
The ribbon can only appear in red or blue, and the trophy can only be engraved with the name of a single champion.
All attention will turn to London, and whether Manchester, Arsenal, or Manchester City, winning the throne can only be decided in the final round.
Mikel Arteta will become the youngest coach in history to win the championship, or Pep Guardiola will become the coach to win the Premier League 4 times in a row. The record is sure to be created again tomorrow night.
Whoever wins the throne is a completely worthy champion. Let’s look forward to exciting moments until the last moment…!
