Arteta called it a massive win and praised the team’s mentality, discipline and the impact of the players from the bench. He also said Villa Park is a very difficult place to go and get a result.
When asked about Alvarez, he wasn’t giving anything away. “that’s for the people upstairs.”
Henry praised the way Arsenal players run, press and work for each other, while Carragher highlighted how this team is learning to win different types of games.
Big win, big mentality. #Coyg #Afc @SkySportsPL
ManUnited is cooked 😂😂
Failed at Chelsea.
Failed at PSG.
Failed at Tottenham.
Failed at Southampton.
Failed at Espanyol.
Failed at USMNT
Won just one league title in a farmers' league, yet somehow Manchester United think Pochettino is the man to deliver the Premier League, arguably the most competitive league in the world. The delusion is unbelievable.

BREAKING from @NewsCentralTV :
Suspected APC thugs have attacked the NDC Townhall venue scheduled to hold in Ikeja, Lagos today.
They destroyed vehicles, attacked members and fired shots into the air. Total carnage here.
Mr. Peter Obi is still on his way there.
NDC faithfuls have managed to get down one of the thugs.
Why are you guys especially chelsea fans pushing this nonsense narrative.
Why didn’t pep win any manager of the month the last time he won the EPL.
You lack content to post just off your phone and sleep.
Arsenal are top of the league right now, yet somehow none of their players would win the Player of the Season award if the season ended today.
That tells you everything about Arteta’s football.
Good, entertaining football and producing an outstanding individual doesn't concern him.

Rio Ferdinand, the delusion is actually embarrassing. Arteta walked into Arsenal when the club was a mess, rebuilt it, restored its identity and made it competitive again. And you think he’d dump all that to join Manchester United, a club in decline.
Please, stop confusing Manchester United’s history with its current reality. You’re living on past glory while Arsenal are building a future. Arteta isn’t dreaming of managing Manchester United, United should be dreaming of having a project half as convincing as Arsenal’s. Know the difference.

Leicester didn’t beat Arsenal the year they won the league. Check your stat well before bring it out here.
This was not a Premier League fluke. This was a team built to win anywhere.
People say Leicester only won because the big teams were weak. That ignores what actually happened. Leicester beat City 3 to 1 at the Etihad. They beat Liverpool at Anfield. They beat Arsenal, Tottenham and Chelsea. They did it home and away, with the same football, against teams with ten times their budget.
That football travels. Leicester never needed to dominate the ball. They let you have it, stayed compact, stayed disciplined, then Kante won it, Mahrez carried it, and Vardy ran in behind. Three passes and you were dead. A system like that does not depend on the stadium, the crowd or the league. It depends on discipline, speed and belief. Leicester had all three.
Now imagine they keep that team. Kante, Mahrez, Vardy, Morgan, Huth, Fuchs, Schmeichel, Albrighton, Okazaki and King stay together for two more years, with the same manager, the same system, plus a few signings for depth.
Would that team not win the Champions League? Look at the proof. The next season, without Kante, with Ranieri sacked and the league form gone, Leicester still beat Sevilla and pushed Atletico Madrid, one of the best defensive teams in Europe, to 2 to 1 on aggregate in the quarter finals. A broken version reached the last eight.
A full version, fresh off a league title, full of confidence and chemistry, would have been a nightmare over two legs. In a knockout tie you do not need to be the best team in the world. You need to be the hardest to beat. Barcelona and Real Madrid would have faced the same problem as City and Arsenal. They push up, Vardy runs behind Pique and Ramos, Mahrez isolates Marcelo, Kante covers everything.
Coincidence does not last 38 games. Coincidence does not reach a Champions League quarter final with half the team gone.
Keep them together and they do not just win the Premier League once. They win anywhere, including the Champions League.

You’re not an Arsenal fan so I won’t blame you. We had a stadium to build and debts to pay. So we prioritized them over titles. Sold our best players year in year out and was still competitive.
Wenger cried so Arteta can laugh.
Champions of England we know WHO WE ARE.
No team has scored three goals against Arsenal in a UEFA Champions League match since Mikel Arteta returned arsenal to the competition.
If that final was a 2 leg knockout game, Arsenal would have swallowed 3 in the second leg walai😂
Your best chance at beating this current Enrique's PSG is in a single leg game.
Luis Enrique, tactical genius buruku. Catch him off guard once, just pray he doesn't meet you again

Calling Arteta’s football “haram” is beginning to sound like frustration. Is it boring football, or is it simply that your team cannot find a way to score against Arsenal, dominate us or impose themselves on the game?
Funny enough, the same team you accuse of playing boring football is the one that dictates the tempo and often dominates your team whenever you face them.
You don’t have to like Arsenal’s football, but struggling to compete against it and then dismissing it as boring is hardly football analysis. It’s an excuse. #football

So Spanish coach also plays haram football?
If they ask you to define what you mean by “haram football, you wouldn’t even give a clear answer.
Arsenal being interested in Alex Baena, an Atlético Madrid player who is coached by Diego Simeone, should tell you everything.
He's an attacking player, yes, but let's not pretend we don't know the kind of football Simeone has been serving all these years.
From Simeone's Haram football to Arteta's advanced Haram football.
