The Arsenal boss has said he admires club Luton Town ahead of Tuesday’s meeting between his side and the promoted side.
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says he admires Luton Town and their “remarkable” journey to the Premier League, adding that he expects a tough game at Kenilworth Road on Tuesday. “It’s an inspiring place and what they’ve done is remarkable. How they did it and what they convey is an amazing story“, Arteta told reporters on Monday.
Arsenal moved two points clear of Liverpool at the top of the table after their 2-1 win over Wolverhampton on Saturday, while Luton, who have climbed the ranks from non-league to the Premier League in nine years, are 17th in their first season in the elite, two points from the drop zone.
«Luton players deserve all the credit they received from last season and the close matches they had this season“, Arteta said. “The two teams are currently facing each other in the World Cup. Rob Edwards is a great coach and a very special person. It shows in the way his team plays. I think they are a very good team and that is not reflected in their results. It’s inspiring to play against them and we’re ready to go».
