It’s been a week to remember for Arsenal fans. A rollercoaster of emotion.
Last weekend the Gunners were left licking their wounds after losing a 1-0 lead to Tottenham as Spurs won the north London derby.
Fast-forward seven days and Mikel Arteta’s side have beaten Premier League champions Liverpool and reached the FA Cup Final with a shock win over Manchester City at Wembley Stadium.
Standard Sport’s Simon Collings looks back at what could yet prove to be a pivotal seven days in Arteta’s tenure at the club.
“If you told any Arsenal fan after losing to Tottenham in the north London derby last weekend that they would go and beat Liverpool on Wednesday and then beat Manchester City on Saturday… they’d have told you that you were crazy.”
“Arsenal have pulled off two brilliant victories in a week that really underlines that Mikel Arteta is building something special here at the club.”
