Arteta hails Arsenal 'finishers' after Madueke fells Forest
NOTTINGHAM: Mikel Arteta said Arsenal’s strength in depth will be key to their Premier League title defence after Noni Madueke came off the bench to clinch a 1-0 win against Nottingham Forest on Sunday.
Mikel Arteta praised Arsenal's depth as a strength for their Premier League title defense following Noni Madueke's late winner against Nottingham Forest. The Gunners secured a 1-0 victory at the City Ground, with Madueke coming off the bench to score in the 80th minute after Arsenal struggled to create chances throughout the match.
Arteta's team, who were well below their best, managed to earn crucial points and move within three points of league leaders Manchester City. The Arsenal manager utilized his strong squad depth by introducing several substitutes during the second half, including Madueke, Mikel Merino, Viktor Gyokeres, and Jurrien Timber. Arteta emphasized the importance of managing the emotional aspect of the game and staying focused, stating that the finishers made a significant impact.
The victory comes after a surprising 3-0 loss to Brighton on September 19, and Arsenal has since won three consecutive league matches, maintaining a sixth win in seven league games.
