Mikel Arteta responds to rumours linking Arsenal with a move for Atletico Madrid forward Julian Alvarez.
-TIMESTAMPS-
00:00 - Intro.
00:13 - Konsa: He’ll be available.
00:32 - Konsa deal: I’m not involved in the transfer. But when a club buys a player they’re happy with the outcome.
01:00 - Good reception?: I hope so.
01:13 - Guimaraes: we’ve managed his load.
01:25 - Potentially available?: Yes.
01:41 - Jesus missing?: different circumstances. Personal situations.
02:17 - Martinelli: That’s another personal situation. Everyone knows how much we love him.
02:43 - Conversations with those two?: yes. I know what’s in each others hearts. It’s inevitable you need to have certain discussions which are tough.
03:14 - Julian Alvarez: don’t go there.
03:46 - sign Players that want Arsenal: A feeling and desire to be part of the family.
04:16 - Nwaneri: no news.
04:44 - Spanish journalist comments: I won’t speak about that.
05:00 - Timber: progressing well. Third week outside. Next week we could step it up. Saliba in a conservative workload.
05:36 - Decision making against Coventry: some were physical. Some were tactical.
06:01 - feel for Emery?: he’s one of the most experienced in the league and successful. It’s just a game I’m sure he’ll turn it around.
06:34 - Conversations with players: Try to be clear as possible and know where the message is coming from. I expect they value that.
07:31 - worth convincing elite players to join: trying to explain what we want, their position in the team. Players don’t come by themselves, the whole ecosystem has to be understood.
08:10 - we are really privileged that players really want to come to Arsenal.
08:43 - feelings of Martinelli: he’s an Arsenal player at the moment. Now’s not the time.
09:03 - doubts playing Konsa against Villa: nothing concerns me there.
09:34 - financial rules: I’d rather not get into that.
10:02 - Strikers: simple if you have a question come speak and I’ll answer it for you. They know so much speculation, if they ever feel doubt I tell them.
10:33 - Has it happened before?: Nope.
11:03 - Where you looking to strengthen: can we do that when the window closes.
11:18 - Today I’m satisfied. When it closes I’ll be more satisfied.
11:43 - Best squad you’ve had?: It’s the best squad and the best we think we’ve had.
12:17 - being looked at differently: I don’t know how teams will behave. We have to go day by day.
12:51 - Eze: great thing is players have versatility. Ebs can deliver. It’s a really asset.
13:33 - Natural reaction because we want more. We have a lot of great players and we’re always looking to strengthen.
