Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has heaped praise on his players, even praising David Raya for his superb save after beating Aston Villa 2-0.

“We had to change the momentum. We had a 10-minute gap where we couldn’t find a rhythm and they came into shape,”

“They had a big chance which David (Raya) made an incredible save and that was a great moment of the game. I gave Trossard the moment to control the game.”

On David Raya: “We conceded very few goals and credit to the team because it’s a tough stadium to come to, but when we needed him he was there and made some great saves.”

On Bukayo Saka and the team: “It’s not just him (Saka), everyone plays with their own unique style. Aston Villa had a more defensive approach than we expected, but we adapted and the team played very bravely.”

“Again, when you need each player, they stand up and UFABET make themselves count. That’s why we won the game.”

On the psychological benefits: “On paper, the two previous games (against Aston Villa), you have to win comfortably, but we didn’t, so there was something missing. Today we did it.”

“With a little bit of luck and individual play, we won the game.”
