Mikel Arteta says he’s enjoying his new role in the heart of Arsenal’s midfield.
The Spanish playmaker has had to curb his attacking instincts this season, with Arsène Wenger deploying him as part of a two-man shield in front of the defence.
And Arteta is happy to play in a deeper position if doing so helps the team.
“It is a big transition but it is more a mental thing. The boss is convinced that is the best thing for the team and I am too, so let’s do it,” he told Arsenal Player.
good lad, team player! originally when he came as a last minute signing last year i was not so enthusiastic about him, he's turned out to be a very useful player though.
