Havertz return UNBELIEVABLE I Mikel Arteta I Arsenal v Newcastle

Mikel Arteta says Kai Havertz return to full fitness has been “unbelievable” with the German potentially ready to face Newcastle on Sunday.

-TIMESTAMPS-
00:00 – Intro.
00:09 – Havertz: He looks in great shape.
00:42 – Credit to him: Unbelievable. Credit to him and the medical staff. He’s improved the metrics for a striker. You’ll see the transformation.
01:07 – Injuries: We’ll have to wait to see what they can do.
01:28 – Players mentality: Phenomenal effort. Our last home game to wrap up the champions league. In a way to say thank you to the supporters for their efforts.
02:13 – One more big performance?: Two, not one! We need to be clinical. We know how thin the margins are with them.
02:48 – Important to finish 2nd: the dream of winning the league is gone. We need to finish 2nd to feel the pain.
03:16 – Partey leaving?: I don’t want to talk about specific cases.
03:36 – Overriding feeling of season?: Not yet.
03:48 – Newcastle bogey?: What they’ve done the last couple of years has been remarkable.
04:08 – What do Newcastle do?: They dominate every aspect of the game. They take advantage of a lot of things.
04:40 – Emirates atmosphere: It’s growing and growing. That’s what we want. The journey makes sense when you have that support and love.
05:11 – increased pressure?: Especially an internal one. That demand to be better.
05:53 – Any regrets?: I wouldn’t use that word. You have regrets in your professional life but I can give you my word that we tried everything. It doesn’t undermine the incredible things we’ve done.
06:34 – Credit for you?: It’s not something I’m looking for.
07:11- Saliba 100 games: I think he’s in an amazing trajectory. Not many defenders in the game at his stage have done what he has. Much more to come.
08:16 – Big summer for young stars: Talking to them, it’s the biggest tournament that exists, happy for those two and hopefully they bring it home.
08:52 – Lewis-Skelly not nominated for YPOTY: Now it’s about proving it every month, it’s the most difficult thing in football consistency.
09:38 – Working with Berta: Very good. Someone who’s very driven in his ideas and vision. Very supportive and ready to add value and make us better.
10:25 – Fully aligned on striker: We’ve never been able to fully get it but that’s football. You have to do it slowly, thing by thing.
11:11 – Not aligned on signings?: If that’s happened we can’t explain ourselves.
12:25 – Top six heirarchy gone?: I think so. It’s frightening the way it’s evolving. It’s incredible. Next season even more difficult.
13:06 – Newcastle title contenders?: definitely.
13:33 – Relieved not to have a break?: It’s not a choice but we have to plan.
14:05 – New transfer window: when there’s an opportunity you need to use it for your benefit.
14:21 – Pre preseason: The players are demanding it. Impossible to be on your sunbed for 5/6 weeks.
15:15 – Big summer moves early on: On paper every club and player wants to be in on day one. Reality is it’s either possible or difficult.
15:56 – Achievement to be in the champions league: I don’t know which manager can promise UCL. To get stability you have to be in the competition.
16:30 – Top four like trophy?: I’m not going to fall into that trap.
