Wayne Rooney has praised Mikel Arteta for his improvements this season, noting that the Arsenal manager appears to have learned from previous experiences.
Rooney believes this could be the year Arteta finally guides Arsenal to a title.
Commenting on Arteta’s performance, Rooney shared on No Tippy Tappy Football: “I think he’s grown. I’ve been really impressed with Arteta this season.”
“Over the last few seasons, they’ve shown a level of consistency. After their recent loss to United, I was struck by how he addressed the media and what he communicated to his team.”
“A year ago, I doubt he would have handled it with such calmness, moving on from those games.”
“He has learned from their past struggles and not making it to the finish line. I believe this is his year to succeed.”

“They are certainly part of the race, but Arsenal has shown strength and consistency throughout the season.”
“It seems challenging for them to falter while City wins all their matches. I still see Arsenal as the favorites.”
