Read Arsenal verdict
Arteta seems pretty keen to take a no-nonsense approach with the squad.
Some supporters might have been expecting to be him be an ‘arms around the shoulder’ type of coach, but it looks like he’ll be quite the opposite.
After taking over from Unai Emery, Arteta looks set to take a ‘my way or no way’ approach at the Emirates.
That level of discipline could be what brings the best out of this squad when you consider how soft things had gone under Emery. Supporters will be watching on with interest to see who reacts well to this approach and who doesn’t.
