‘I am so privileged to be here’ – Arteta says ahead of 100th game as Arsenal manager

Mikel Arteta will take charge of his 100th game as Arsenal manager against Watford at the Emirates in the Premier League on Sunday.

On hitting that milestone, Arteta – in his pre-match presser – said it has been “an incredible and quick journey”.

He added: “A lot has happened. Not only at the club but around the world. It’s had a huge impact on everything we have done over the last two years but it’s a privilege to be where I am and I am really enjoying the opportunity and the challenge we have ahead.”

Arsenal have won three Premier League games on the spin and are up to sixth after losing their first three games.
