Tasman: Odegao does what many players can t do, and Yorke s help is very helpful if he doesn t score a goal

October 2: In the second round of the Champions League, Arsenal won two consecutive victories at home 2-0. Arteta attended a press conference after the game and talked about the team's performance in this game and the personnel situation.

Talk to win

"I'm very happy. Obviously, it's always very difficult to win in the Champions League, but we completed the clean sheet again, and the players performed very well. I think we started the game very well, the offense was very threatening, very dynamic, and constantly creating offensives, but there were two or three excellent opportunities, but we didn't get to the point. In such a game, you have to be vigilant at all times. Raya had a wonderful save that prevented the opponent's goal, and this performance was also needed in this level of game. After that, we took control of the game festival But at some point, despite controlling the game, our defense still retreated a little, and whenever the opponent sent the ball into the penalty area through a cross, it was very threatening. But in the end, Saka found a way to score, and we were able to breathe a little relieved. The opponent was a team that often reversed the game in the last few minutes, and they had won many times this season. We knew they would fight until the last moment, and it was indeed the case. "

Talk Odegao

"He has complete freedom of forwarding and can create extremely strong threats in the game, It's not only reflected in his passing, but also in his pickup, dribbling, running and always being in a very threatening position. I think he has created many good scoring opportunities for his teammates today, and he deserves to score one. It's great to see him return, he has made a lot of contributions to winning the game against Newcastle, and I think his performance today is also phenomenal. I think creativity is his nature, so it doesn't put pressure on him, and it's his most outstanding ability to do many things that other players can't do. I fully support him in his freedom to try , explore, and adjust his performance according to the needs of the game. I think he has done this in the last two games. "

Talking about the team's lineup depth this season. "Indeed, although it may be a bit disrespectful to say that, we had five youth training players on the roster last season, and they may have never played professional games like the Champions League. So, this season is really different. We changed six players today because I want everyone to really participate and feel that they are part of the team. It works very well, and we feel that , After a very fierce battle with Newcastle a few days ago, the players' physical fitness has declined, and the substitutes have improved our level again and helped us win the game, which is great. "

Talking about Gabriel's situation

"I think he will be fine. He felt a little uncomfortable in the first half, maybe he was kicked, not sure, he can continue to play in the second half, but we decided not to take risks. He has played many games and has just recovered from injury, so we have to take good care of him."

Talking about Yorklez

"I can feel that he is improving every game. Today he has several shots blocked and hit the post. However, the overall performance is still very good. Of course we all hope that he can score goals, but even if there is no goal, as long as he continues to give everything for the team like this, he has helped the team a lot, so I hope he can restart his goal account, and it is best to achieve this weekend."

Talking about Skelly

" Very good, I think he performed very well today, both defense and offense, very well. He looks very focused, rhythm It was well grasped, and I was very satisfied with everything I saw today. "

Talking about the importance of rotation

"Yes, especially for Saka, who just recovered from injury and had played 45 minutes, 60 minutes and 70 minutes in a very short time, and it was more risky to get him on the court today, so we decided to give him a break, Martinelli played very well today. As for Rice, he performed very well three days ago, but he had played so many games and had to continue playing a lot of games in the future. It's great to have a player like Merino who can play and have such a great performance, he can play anytime when we need different types of players. "

Talking about Olympiacos coach Mendi Livar

"It's great to see him, I'm very happy to see him everything goes well, and I feel a little strange because he used to be my coach. There's always a strange feeling when you have to fight your former coach. I'm getting old, maybe it's a good thing, I learned a lot from him, and that experience is very valuable to me. Thank God for letting us win the game and wishing him all the best."
