Arteta can't finish empty handed

MIK HAS TO PICK POCKET OF PEP

MIKEL ARTETA had a team of pickpockets at a players' meal to snatch some of their possessions -including several gold watches.

But it is about time the Arsenal manager led a squad to pocket some silverware.

The Gunners boss did help them on their way to winning the FA Cup in 2020 but that wasn't really his team. Now he's heading into his fifth full season in charge and he hasn't won anything since.

There's no doubt the work the Spaniard has done at the Emirates has been phenomenal.

In partnership with sporting director Edu, he was given full faith from the club to build something. So far, he has turned Arsenal from also-rans under Unai Emery to Premier League title challengers.
