Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has empathised with Chelsea boss Graham Potter and offered his thoughts on what the 47-year-old is going through at present. The Gunners find themselves top of the Premier League and enjoying the benefits after the ownership showed faith in keeping Arteta on as manager at the end of last season.
It hasn't always been a happy atmosphere at the Emirates Stadium under Arteta's reign. At the end of last season, the Gunners missed out on a top four spot at the expense of their north London rivals Tottenham on the final day of the 2021/22 campaign.
Many were calling for the Spaniard to be sacked but the board stood by him and trusted in his long-term vision he was trying to implement at the club. Chelsea have changed ownership in the last year with Todd Boehly sacking Thomas Tuchel and replacing him with Potter six months ago.
