The one simple Mikel Arteta tactic that has turned Arsenal duo into ... (Football.London)

Arsenal have enjoyed an extremely productive season, currently sitting eight points clear at the top of the Premier League standings.

The Spaniard's attacking patterns are choreographed, with every player in a position for a reason, not just for the sake of it. But Martinelli and Saka are more than the new kids on the block now. His wingers need to receive the ball with an open stance whilst facing the opposition goal. Trossard then plays the ball inside the Brazilian international's movement, again making it easy for him to run onto the ball without losing control. One reason for this is the way their manager instructs them to receive the ball. The pair won two league titles as City's starting wide man before Sane left for Bayern Munich. Arteta wants his wingers to have an open body when they receive the ball so that they can see everything in front of them, as well as to their side. “Since we started working together, he helped me a lot on the pitch. The two youngsters have improved leaps and bounds under Arteta's stewardship, registering a combined 37 goals and assists in the league this term. When asked if Saka and Martinelli were the two best wide men in Europe earlier this month, St. Juste labelling them as the best wingers in Europe. The Gunners' most recent outing came on Sunday as they defeated Crystal Palace 4-1 at the Emirates Stadium, with one of Arteta's principles on display throughout.

Mikel Arteta at Rangers and his title-clinching penalty: 'He pulled ... (The Athletic)

Heading into the final day of the 2002-03 season, Rangers and Celtic are neck and neck. Level on 94 points and inseparable on goal difference, the only column ...

Had he stayed for longer, Arteta would have been held in the same esteem as many less talented foreign players are, but as Craig Moore knew after his first few sessions, this was a boy destined for the top. He was a raw diamond, we just had to polish him,” says the Dutchman. It was a crime that Rangers didn’t retain a player of his ability for longer — as De Boer believes they could have if the club had made him feel more important — or at least capitalise on that talent by making a profit. They wanted to give Ferguson that role but that was a mistake in my eyes.” We gave him the perfect solution in the first season and a not-so-perfect one in the second season with a depleted squad. He said he was a nice footballer and never really got troubled in the game but it would probably be difficult for him in Scotland. Barry ran the show and Arteta was the playmaker coming in on his right foot. He just knew he was the mustard.” “So I got Ronald in the office and asked if he thought he could play in different positions. There was not a huge influx of players to wrestle back the title, though. Karting had become a regular team-building exercise for Rangers in the 1990s, but there was one unusual sight on this afternoon in 2002 that caused the rest of the squad to double-take. McLeish knew he had to use his finite resources wisely come the summer and so he sought counsel from two wise heads.
