Nuno Tavares' recent comments over his loan move to Marseille from Arsenal show that the young full-back has ignored the advice of Gunners boss Mikel Arteta.
The ex-Benfica defender was purchased for a relatively low-risk transfer fee of £7million last summer and initially impressed with his start to life at the Emirates. At one stage, Tavares was actually keeping first-choice left-back Kieran Tierney out of the Arsenal first-team in the build-up to the hectic festive fixture list.
However, things changed after Christmas and the turn of the new year brought arguably the lowest point of Tavares' career when he was hooked 30 minutes into Arsenal's third-round FA Cup defeat away at then-Championship outfit Nottingham Forest.
