[0:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=11) Um, because what you watch and you see in football every day, what Arsenal did, especially in the difficult moments, it doesn't exist. It doesn't exist. I told Edu, I told, uh, Andrea when I came last year to the Champions League,

[0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=26) and congratulations to the whole club for the patience, for sticking together and sticking to the plan when for three years in a row, correct me if I'm wrong, but finished eighth, eighth, eighth, fourth year, nearly Champions League.

[0:37](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=37) It was a big disappointment. Tottenham come, you ge- you finish fifth.

[0:40](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=40) But you keep going because you have a plan, because you have an objective, you have a progression, you keep going forward, you know?

[0:45](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=45) And, uh, we lack this in football today.

[0:48](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=48) Every day you see, okay, lose three games, change the coach.

[0:51](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=51) He was playing one style, now he's playing another.

[0:54](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=54) And, uh, at the end of the day, I don't believe in this a lot.

[0:57](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=57) I'm very lucky that I am in a project, of course, with much more lower level, lower, what, everything, for the history, for everything. But, uh, you know, we're trying to, to look a little bit at the stability that Arsenal had,

[1:11](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=71) at the, at the values, at the culture that they are bringing, and I think Mikel has done a tremendous job. So I can only wish them the best, really, because also the group. I don't know, these, these guys, now you talk to them and they give you... I don't know, they're good guys, you know, and they want to play good

[1:27](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=87) football. They are respectful. You can see how they stick to the plan all the time.

[1:31](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/1k19NRUsKZyf/en/arsenal-s-patience-and-mikel-arteta-s-long-term-project-praised?t=91) And no, really, I'm, I'm super happy to, to come back here and see and smell this feeling.
