Mikel Arteta will be eager to return to winning ways after the international break. Arsenal will lock horns with Nottingham Forest at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday afternoon as both sides look to climb the Premier League table.
The Gunners have won just five points from a possible 15 in the English top-flight since October, with their only victory coming against Southampton at the start of last month. They’ve dropped to fourth in the English top-flight, falling nine-points behind Liverpool in the title race.
While the North Londoners trail by some distance, Arteta wants his players to ‘show their teeth’. Earlier this month, he said: “Win, win and win because these guys, they don’t stop winning, so that’s what we have to do. When it gets nasty, show your teeth and show how much you want it.
