The big match in the Premier League is between Manchester City and Arsenal. The team of Mikel Arteta will be a guest of Pep Guardiola’s team to try to overtake them at the top of the table. And in view of the next league match, the Spanish coach commented in a press conference:
“We’ve been preparing for this since pre-season. We knew the schedule and that it’s extremely rare to play in these conditions with three big away games in six days. But that’s it, so we’ve been preparing for this, physically, mentally and tactically,” the Gunners coach began. “We’re making sure everyone is ready for this because we’re going to need them, especially with the injuries we’ve had since the international break.
We wanted the same path as them but we are not getting it. So we have to adapt and make the most of the time we have today and tomorrow and the morning of the game to prepare ourselves in the best way to go there and win the game. I really enjoy spending time in the office and on the training pitch. We want to be in the position we are in: we dreamed of it years ago and we are in this position now. Let’s make the most of it and enjoy it.”
