Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta has admitted he’s looking forward to playing against Chelsea on Saturday.
The Gunners will travel to Stamford Bridge to play their London rivals in what is arguably the biggest match of the weekend.
Arsenal are currently without a loss in the league, and sit at the top with Tottenham on 20 points, while Chelsea are 11th with 11 points.
Speaking ahead of the game, Arteta said (per the official Arsenal website): “It’s a big game and we know that there is a big history between the two clubs and the type of games we have played against them. It’s a very different one I think.
“This season, I’ve been really impressed by Chelsea, they deserve much more than what they’ve got on the table. I think what Mauricio has done in such a short time is phenomenal and we’re going to have to be at our best tomorrow.
“I think when you look first of all at the managing and coaching staff they have, the history of the club that they have, the players and the squad they have, it’s going to happen.
“I think it has happened pretty quickly, not only in the last three results but I think they deserved much more in terms of results and points than what they already have, so I can see that they’re going to be up there.”
