Arteta has spoke to the media ahead of Saturday’s game between Newcastle and Arsenal, and admitted that he is looking forward to experiencing the St James’ Park noise once again.
“You play football, you want to play in those atmospheres,” he said, as reported by Football London.
“You have to embrace the moment and enjoy it. These are the arenas you want to be tested in.”
St James’ Park crowd will have a huge impact on Saturday’s game
St James’ Park is an incredible arena to play football in, and it is a place where the atmosphere can have such an impact.
Arteta will be eager for his team to manage the crowd and do their best to keep them quiet, as he will know that will give them a great chance of victory.
As for Howe, he needs his players to give the Toon Army something to get behind. Whether it is a big tackle or a wonderful bit of pressing, the Newcastle fans will respond with a roar. It is up to his to help give the players that extra 10% and that belief that they can come out on top.
There have been so many big games at St James’ Park already this season, and this is another one. Arteta is excited, and it will be interesting to hear what he says about the Newcastle atmosphere after Saturday’s game.Mikel Arteta has just said something very interesting about the atmosphere at Newcastle
