Mikel Arteta has admitted it is "inevitable" he will one day be sacked as Arsenal manager amid speculation Barcelona are keeping tabs on the Spaniard.
The Gunners boss has enjoyed a sensational start to this season, guiding his side to the top of the Premier League table with 10 wins from their opening 12 fixtures. As a result, morale is currently sky-high around the Emirates with the Arsenal faithful dreaming of a shock title triumph come the end of the campaign.
Arteta may be the youngest boss in the Premier League but he is experienced enough to know just how quickly things can change in elite-level management. It is for that reason he has come to terms with the fact he'll one day be axed from his post.
