Arsenal

After seeing us beat Wolves 2-0 to go five points clear at the top of the table, Mikel Arteta faced the media for the final time before the World Cup break.

This week, I think it was very tricky because there were too many things around the World Cup and certain individuals, but the boys did what they had to do. After that, we will try to prepare him in the best possible way. And the rest [will] just fulfil a dream that every kid has had, when they had a chance to represent their national team in a World Cup. We have to reflect on what we are doing, and be very much prepared for what is going to come after the World Cup. But, our aim is to play better as a team every single day; to have better tools to do what we want to do on that pitch. We have to use the time now in the best possible way so the players who are not participating in the World Cup, they will have some time off, which they fully deserve.
