Mikel Arteta reveals the specific player that he has been happy with this season

Arsenal has been outstanding this season and Mikel Arteta has opened up about a player that has impressed him a lot this season.

Amidst Arsenal’s impressive run of form this season, one player who has been a standout performer is Ben White. The 25-year-old defender was originally signed as a centre back but has been converted into a right back by manager Mikel Arteta, and the decision has proved to be a masterstroke.

White’s consistency and adaptability have been vital to Arsenal’s success this season. He has helped to provide stability at the back while also contributing to the attack. One of his standout features has been his ability to create chances going forward. With two goals and three assists so far this season, White has shown his versatility and effectiveness in both defence and attack.

Arteta has been full of praise for White’s performances, stating that he is “extremely happy” with the player’s consistency and adaptability. He also believes that White has a bright future ahead of him, and will undoubtedly have more opportunities with the England national team in the future.

“I’m extremely happy with him. Again, he’s been really consistent, he has adapted to the position really well. The way they flow, and the way they play, especially with a few [different] players and the way they link up, it has been great. He will have other opportunities [with England] in the future, for sure. ” Mikel Arteta told Arsenal media.

White’s impact on Arsenal’s current Premier League position cannot be overstated. The Gunners currently sit in fifth place in the table, just three points behind fourth-placed West Ham United. With White’s consistent performances at right back, Arsenal have been able to tighten up their defence and provide a platform for their attacking players to shine.

It is also worth noting that Arsenal are currently in the title race. They sit at the top of the Premier League table with 72 points after 29 games, closely followed by second-placed Manchester City, who have 64 points plus a game in hand. White’s performances have undoubtedly played a significant role in Arsenal’s success this season.

Looking ahead, it is clear that White has a bright future ahead of him. He has proven himself to be a versatile and effective player, and with more opportunities with the England national team likely to come his way, he is sure to continue making an impact both domestically and internationally.

Overall, Ben White has been a revelation for Arsenal this season. His versatility, consistency, and effectiveness in both defence and attack have been vital to the Gunners’ success. With his bright future ahead of him, there is no doubt that he will continue to play a key role in Arsenal’s pursuit of Premier League glory.
