However, Matt Turner is the backup keeper for Arsenal behind Aaron Ramsdale. He credits Mikel Arteta for helping him train effectively. He said,

We were playing a small possession game and it was really, really tight.“I tried to make a pass and I gave the ball away. I sort of visually got frustrated and upset and he (Arteta) just came up to me and shoved me. He was basically like: ‘I don’t want to see that. I don’t like seeing that reaction. I want to see you pick yourself up and keep going.’

THE REACTIONS ARE THE REASON WHY THE GUNNERS ARE ON THE TOP OF THE TABLE

The reaction clearly indicates that Mikel Arteta is having a positive impact on the team. Matt Turner also said,

“I think that really set the tone for my mentality within the club and just to keep going no matter what. If you fail, that’s alright. What matters is how you react and not about the failure in itself. That was a really nice moment.”

This was also the reaction of Arsenal after losing to Manchester United. Manchester United was their first loss in the Premier League this season.

However, they managed to bounce back with a win against FC Zurich in the Europa League. They also managed to defeat Brentford convincingly with a 3-0 win.
