Arteta: I believe in what the team is doing, and I don't think about this matter

Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta appeared in a press conference, to talk about Sunday’s confrontation against Chelsea, in the 11th round of the English Premier League.

The coach said: “Decla “Rice: I have to be very vague about this because there is no clarity, whether he will be fit or not for the weekend has not trained yet and it is not yet clear whether he will be available.”

He added: "Odigar? Everyone in the team will be fit and available to start the match. Then the decision will be to see if it is too early, Kai Havertz and Mikel Merino? We will have to wait and see how they react. Kai's head injury was very bad." Mikel was not feeling well and we decided to replace him in the first half.”

He continued: “Losing against Chelsea would mean losing the title? I don’t think about that, no one works hard "More than me, I guarantee you that. We don't need a reset. In a certain aspect we need to go from 95 to 100. I won't tell you what that is, it won't take 100 points this season. It will take perfection to keep winning."

He stressed: “We have to adapt a lot this season because we have a lot of injuries. This is something the team learns and adapts to. Many times it worked and many times something was missing. “The team has the ability to adapt.”

He continued regarding the return of Martin Odegaard: “It is about teamwork and everyone taking responsibility. Certainly having a player like Martin helps because he has shown the influence he has.” I've updated him over the last four or five years, he's available, he's fit, then we make the decision.”

He continued: “The mentality of the team? You go there this morning and think about me Their feeling when they are there. They pay attention, they are hungry, they want to work, their desire is incredible, it is fun to work with them.”

He concluded: “When you don’t win, it affects. On the mood and energy. There is no one in this room or outside it that wants to win more than me or the players. This is impossible. I feel great belief in what we are doing as a team.”
