Arteta's tactical trick that helped Manchester City finish Arsenal with a second goal
On Sunday we witnessed an away win for last's year Premier League champions against Arsenal, with a 0-2 victory.
When Bernardo Silva scored the second goal for Manchester City, Pep Guardiola turned to Mikel Arteta and hugged him.
This suggested that Arteta has played a major role in City's second goal, after Bernardo Silva came into the picture for City.
Arteta was an Arsenal player for many years but is now a member of Pep's Guardiola staff.
It turns out that Arteta has told Mendy to make a short cross instead of a high cross.
That happened and Silva capitalized on it, leading City to a big win.
During the summer, there was speculation wanting Arteta to become the new Arsenal's manager. It turns out that didn't happen and Arsenal appointed Unai Emery instead.
I thought arteta had left . He is a good middle man between Pepe and the players . If you wanna partake in a last man standing competition you should head over to my blog. Free entry and 20 steem for winner
Arteta's influence on City team can never be over emphasized, its a pity Arsenalfc couldn't take the bull by the horn and employ Arteta ( a rookie so to say) before settling for Emery.
I believe Emery was a better all around choise though.
