Arteta on Martinelli winner vs City

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has sent his reaction following the club's dramatic 1-0 win over Manchester City in the Premier League.



The Gunners were on a stunning 12-match losing league streak against City and they managed to end the woeful run at the Emirates Stadium.

Following the game, Arteta spoke about Martinelli's quick progress from his hamstring injury which made it possible to face the Cityzens.

He said: "He’s been saying for a few weeks that I was going to be there for City. Obviously, we were saying that Gabi it would be too early for you, and yesterday he said, boss I told you, I’m going to be ready for this. His mentality is incredible at his age."

The Gunners are currently second in the league standings behind Tottenham Hotspur. Spurs are at the top of the standings due to more goals scored.

Arteta's side return after the international break with an away game at Chelsea. It promises to be another exciting contest for the club.
