🚨 Mikel Arteta on PSG: “What they are able to do with the ball, with individual actions – I’ve never seen it before”. ht

What happened: Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta heaped praise on PSG, saying what the side does with the ball and through individual actions is something he has "never seen before." In the same remarks he went further, calling Paris the best team in the world.

Why it matters: The endorsement carries weight coming from a manager whose own team has set a high bar this season, and it underlines how PSG have become the benchmark others now measure themselves against. It echoes Arteta's earlier framing of PSG as the holders Arsenal wanted to chase down.

What to watch: Watch whether Arteta moves to emulate PSG's approach at Arsenal, having already signaled he wants to adopt the individual actions that impressed him.
