In December 2019, Arsenal were falling apart—5 wins in 18, no Champions League, no identity.
The fans had lost hope. The club had lost its soul.
And then they gave the reins… to a rookie.
Mikel Arteta—no experience, just Pep’s assistant.
Critics laughed. But what Arteta built?
Discipline. Culture. Legacy.
He benched stars, trusted the youth, and built a system from the ground up.
Saka, Martinelli, Ødegaard, Declan Rice—they didn’t just play, they thrived.
From an FA Cup in his first season to 89 points in 2024 and a 3-0 demolition of Real Madrid in the UCL…
Arteta didn’t just save Arsenal—he rebuilt an empire.
