Gary Neville insists Mikel Arteta is on the cusp of breaking into the top bracket of managers with his Arsenal side pushing for the Premier League title.
The Spaniard saw his side complete a double over Tottenham after winning at the home of their neighbours on Sunday. It was Arsenal's 15th win in 18 games as they opened up an eight-point lead at the summit following Manchester City's derby loss 24 hours earlier.
Arteta is now into his third full season as boss and is thriving after being shown patience by the board. His role at the Emirates is his first attempt at being a head coach following his education under Pep Guardiola. The former City No 2 is now showing he can cut it alongside the best.
