The Mikel Arteta that arrived at Arsenal from Manchester City has changed significantly during his time at the club in many areas as his managerial experience has grown.
From decision-making on the field in matches to off the pitch in the transfer market, Arteta has changed his Arsenal approach. Beginning with a back three system, the Spaniard has moved to consolidate his long-term plan to play with four at the back formation with three main forwards.
Whereas previously, signings were made with the intent of getting an immediate impact through experienced heads like Willian and Thomas Partey, Mikel Arteta has since skewed towards the younger generation of talent.
