Mikel Arteta urges Arsenal to bring City losing streak to an end
Mikel Arteta urges Arsenal to bring City losing streak to an end
Mikel Arteta has called for Arsenal to change their Premier League losing streak against Manchester City ahead of their clash at the Emirates on Sunday. Arsenal are without a league win against the treble-winners since 2015 and a defeat on Sunday would extend their losing run to 13. Arteta highlighted that his side have broken winless streaks against other sides and called for his players to do the same against City. “When I came here I think it was 18 years at Old Trafford, 17 years at Stamford Bridge and we have since done it, so lets change it,” Arteta said. “My only worry is the quality of the opponent and that’s unquestionable and on Sunday we have to be at our best for 100 minutes. That’s what we can control and we need to focus. “In these big games you need big players with talent who make it count. Duels are a big thing in a game which can go one way or another.” Arteta lauded “top player” Declan Rice who he believes has adapted quickly to life in north London after his summer switch from West Ham. Rice moved for a reported £105m in July and has featured in all seven league matches for the Gunners, scoring their second in a 3-1 win over Manchester United in September. And Arteta highlighted the midfielder’s attributes which has allowed him to adjust to his new surroundings. “With Declan, I am extremely pleased. He has the qualities, the presence, the understanding to be a top player for us in his position,” Arteta added. “When you pay that sum of money you hope that they adapt really quickly but I think overall he’s adapted really nicely. “The league, the opponents, the demands we have here, the player he is for the national team, his previous club as well are all really relevant (reasons he has settled in quickly).” Erling Haaland failed to score when Arsenal beat City in the Community Shield in August and Arteta believes his defenders have the physicality to nullify the Norwegian’s strengths. He said: “That game was a while ago and it will be different, they will do different things as well but we are prepared to play to our strengths. “I think we have enough physicality in the backline to deal with those players (Haaland) and we have to prove it with every action on Sunday.”

Jordan Henderson and Fabinho not yet subjects of bids from Saudi Arabian clubs
Jordan Henderson and Fabinho not yet subjects of bids from Saudi Arabian clubs
Speculation surrounding the future of Liverpool midfielders Jordan Henderson and Fabinho has not yet translated into actual bids for the players. The interest in Henderson, in particular, from Al Ettifaq – managed by former team-mate Steven Gerrard – has resulted in claims the 33-year-old has already decided to accept a deal worth a reported £700,000 per week. However, Liverpool will not allow their captain, who has two years remaining on his contract, to leave for free despite suggestions on the contrary emanating from the Middle East. The £20million Al Hilal spent on Chelsea defender Kalidou Koulibaly, 32, this summer is seen as a more realistic benchmark. Fabinho is being linked with a move to Saudi Pro League champions Al Ittihad, one of four Saudi Arabian clubs owned by the country’s Public Investment Fund, who are reportedly willing to pay £40m for a player who turns 30 in October. But it is understood so far there has been no offer for him either and with the squad due to depart for their pre-season camp in Germany on Saturday both players are expected to travel having returned to training earlier this week. Liverpool’s midfield is undergoing a revamp this summer, with the experienced James Milner joining Brighton and the contracts of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain and Naby Keita expiring. They have been replaced by Argentina’s World Cup winner Alexis Mac Allister, aged 24, and 22-year-old Hungary captain Dominik Szobozslai for a combined £95m. That may mean reduced playing time for Henderson, who has lifted every elite trophy during his captaincy of the club, but he remains an integral part of the dressing room.
