Arsenal boss, Mikel Arteta, has revealed that he is happy with the reaction he has gotten from the club since becoming the coach of the Gunners.

The Spaniard’s first game as manager of the Gunners will be against Bournemouth on Boxing Day.

Speaking at a press conference ahead of the game at Bournemouth, the former Everton player said: “I need them all on board. All the meetings we’ve had is to get everyone on board and so far I’m very happy with the reaction. What we are going to transmit to the team is accountability to play for this football club. This is the basic.”

Arteta has also praised the current Arsenal team, describing it as a very good one, but admits there is still room for improvement.

The Gunners go into the game against Bournemouth on the back of a goalless draw with Everton last Saturday.

Arsenal have won their last three games against Bournemouth. The wins included a 5-1 Premier League victory last February.
