July 23rd According to football.london, Arsenal defeated AC Milan 1-0 in the first preseason, and Gunners coach Arteta accepted an interview with the media after the game.

Victory

Arteta: "We are all very satisfied with the team's performance, especially the attitude, strength and dominance we showed throughout the game, and of course the desire for victory."

Talk Saka

Arteta: "In terms of the players' personal performance, many people have shown excellent competitive state. Bukayo Saka is the best among them. Throughout the summer preparation period, we conducted targeted special training for him to help him make up for his shortcomings - this can maximize his talent, so that he can show his technical characteristics more dazzlingly and create greater influence on the game when he maintains his top physical condition."

Talks to Daoman and youth training players

Arteta: "I am delighted with the performance of all young players. In me It seems that the key to reaching such a competitive level at the age of 15 is the environment and culture created by the team - when the team can quickly gain a sense of belonging and self-confidence, talent will naturally bloom. Of course, to show your strength like this child when facing a strong enemy, in addition to the blessing of the environment, he also needs to have extraordinary talent and strength. "

Continue to talk about youth training players

Arteta: "This performance is exciting. Our coaching team and staff of our Youth Training Academy have made great efforts, and now is the time to give opportunities and reap rewards. In such a difficult game against the strong team, these young people have indeed seized the opportunity. It is amazing to be able to show such a high level at the age of 15."

Kai Havertz has obviously gained muscle this summer. How do you view his performance today?

Arteta: "This player is in excellent form. In the game, he has run out of nothing completely, but unfortunately the ball has not been passed. The running coverage he provides for the team is top-notch - not only scored against Watford a few days ago, but also had several extremely threatening attacks. Overall, I am very satisfied with his performance."

Speaking of Timber and Gabriel, who failed to play,: "Timber has not yet met the joint training standards. Gabriel has been a little uncomfortable in training recently - considering his long-term injury, we must carefully manage his recovery process. From Spain to the UK, and the training ground and environment here are constantly changing, we must minimize his injury risk as much as possible."

Can fans see Yorke appear in the game against Newcastle?

Artetta: "I will not let any player who has not completed the transfer procedures on the game."

How to evaluate Envaneli's performance?

Arteta: "It is very good. After a short rest, these young players have returned from summer training with a new look - their physique is more mature, and their presence on the court has been significantly improved. Taking Envanelli as an example, his training is extremely hard. Although he only practices several times, it is rare to be able to persist in 45 minutes of games under such high temperatures. Mari and Josh also performed well, and I feel relieved by the progress of all the young players."
