Arteta is one of the best coaches in the world -Merino

Arsenal’s midfielder Mikel Merino described Mikel Arteta as one of the best coaches in the world.

Speaking about his first season at Arsenal under Arteta, Merino said he has been good for him, since he has been able to improve and grow as a footballer.

“It has been a very pleasant year. I am seeing things that I have never worked before in my career, and it is also helping me to learn about football and grow,” said the former star of the Royal Society on the Arsenal news channel.

“Arteta is a very complete coach. He has taken the best of Guardiola, and you can see that period he had with him every day.

“The idea is to be a dominant team, one that entails the weight of the game and does not allow the opponent to have the advantage. To subdue them and greatly limit their attacks.

Then I think he also has his touches, his methodology, and that is the best he does: take the best of each position. And I think he, if not the best, without a doubt one of the best coaches in the world. “
