Mikel Arteta takes Stoke comparison for Arsenal as compliment
Today at 19:22
Mikel Arteta claimed it is a “big compliment” to be compared to Tony Pulis’ Stoke side – and said Arsenal want to be the “kings of everything” as he moved to defend the club’s impressive corner record. The Gunners head to Fulham on Sunday having reduced the gap to Liverpool at the Premier League summit from nine points to seven after a 2-0 midweek win over Manchester United. Jurrien Timber and William Saliba both scored from corners in the second half to lay the foundations for the victory.
