  "account": "Mikel Arteta has claimed the title of Arsenal's most successful manager based on his win rate, with a remarkable 60.9% record from 361 matches in charge. This statistic was highlighted by Arsenal in a recent feature on their official website, following the announcement of his new contract extension until 2030. The 44-year-old manager has overseen 220 wins, 67 draws, and 74 losses, placing him ahead of other legendary managers such as Arsene Wenger and Unai Emery. Despite managing fewer games than the six other Arsenal managers with more match experience, Arteta's win percentage surpasses them all. The club also noted that Arteta has achieved 150 Premier League victories in just 249 matches, a feat only four managers have accomplished faster. Arteta's current 2.01 points-per-game average in the Premier League ranks seventh among managers with at least 50 matches. His record also makes him the youngest Arsenal manager to win the league championship at 44 years and 54 days, just 124 days younger than the previous record holder.",
