Spanish defender Bellerin played for Arsenal for 10 years. The player recently talked about the difference between Wenger and Arteta in an interview with 442.

"Wenger likes to compare football to art. He says the two are in common, because football is a way of self-expression, just like art. He is not a tactical maniac, but focuses more on creating an environment where we can enjoy the game. His philosophy is: If you are a member of the first team, you are a professional player, you must be clear about your responsibilities, and his responsibility is to provide you with enough help to make you shine. When this philosophy is fully integrated into the team and the entire team resonates with this feeling, you can play the purest football, which is so wonderful. "

" And Arteta is a tactical genius, he taught me a lot, he and Wenger are like two sides of the same coin, good football is to find the right balance between these two ideas. It's great to see the team perform well in recent seasons under Arteta, and some young players have started training with the first team when I was still playing for Arsenal, and seeing them so good now, I'm as proud as an old father, which makes me happy. I've always looked forward to returning to the Emirates Stadium to watch the game and feel the enthusiasm of the gun fans."
