Unai Emery suggested he was not given the time he needed at Arsenal as he claimed Mikel Arteta is "continuing what I began" at the Emirates.
Emery was appointed Gunners boss in 2018 after Arsene Wenger left the role he had occupied for 22 years. The Spaniard led the North Londoners to a fifth-place finish in the Premier League and to the Europa League final, where they were defeated by Chelsea.
Results took a turn for the worse during Emery's second season in charge and he was sacked in November 2019 following a run of seven games without a win. Arteta was unveiled as his compatriot's replacement one month later and steered Arsenal to an FA Cup triumph just eight months into the job.
