On the eve of the Champions League clash between Arsenal and PSG, Mikel Arteta made complimentary remarks about PSG and their coach Luis Enrique.
On the occasion of the 2e day of the Champions League, Paris Saint-Germain travels to Arsenal on Tuesday evening. On the sidelines of this beautiful European poster, Mikel Arteta was at a press conference. The Gunners manager notably looked back on his only season spent at PSG (2001-2002) when he was a player. An indelible memory.
“It was my first professional experience and I loved every minute there,” he reacted, with a smile on his face, when asked about his Parisian season. I am always grateful to the club, who believed in me at the age of 17. It was a real springboard for me, with teammates who shaped who I wanted to be as a player and who ignited in me the desire to become a manager in the future: Ronaldinho, Anelka, Okocha, Pochettino, Heinze …they were incredible players”confided the Spanish technician.
Arteta: ‘I admire Luis Enrique a lot’
Arteta then praised Luis Enrique. “ I admire Luis Enrique a lot. An incredible personality, enormous charisma, enormous energy, he declared. He has always been a great support to young players. And what I like about him is that no matter what he did as a player or as a manager, his imprint is everywhere. You can easily see that it’s his team, the way the players behave, the way they want to attack, they want to dominate matches, the mindset and energy they have. He has incredible power. He did it at his former clubs and then with the Spanish national team. His approach to life and profession should also be taken into account. I learned a lot of things from him. »
