Mikel Arteta has earned a solid reputation at Arsenal, transforming the club from a challenging position to one of the top teams in football.
Despite facing criticism and taking his time, he has turned Arsenal into a competitive side.
Some critics argue that Arteta has yet to win the Premier League or Champions League. While those titles would enhance his credentials, they do not diminish his current achievements.
Recently, Lionel Messi ranked Arteta third among top managers for 2025, behind only Luis Enrique and Hansi Flick.
This recognition from Messi, a leading figure in football, is significant. Commenting on Messi’s remarks, Arteta said:
“He’s someone I admire greatly, the best player in the history of the game. So, hearing this about our team and what we’ve accomplished is very encouraging.”
Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal Poised for Premier League Dominance
Under Arteta, Arsenal has finished as runners-up in the Premier League for three consecutive seasons.
The goal now is to win the title, but Manchester City remains a significant challenge this season.
Though there is still much football to play, some believe Arteta could lead Arsenal to dominate English football in the coming years.
Speculation is growing about Pep Guardiola potentially leaving City at the end of the season. If that happens, the dynamics of the league could shift dramatically.
If Guardiola departs, Arsenal might become favorites for future titles. With Arteta at the helm, it’s easy to envision them fulfilling those expectations more than once.
