The Gunners have had a frustrating start to the Premier League campaign. They are presently fourth in the table with a nine-point gap to leaders Liverpool.
Arteta on reaching 250 games for Arsenal

The London giants have no room for error going forward and they need to build a winning streak in the coming weeks to try and reduce the deficit to the top.
Arsenal have been fancied to sign a new centre-forward since the summer and we believe the club should splash the cash during the winter transfer window.
Kai Havertz has been decent leading the line this term with seven goals, but Gabriel Jesus has failed to impress. He has not scored in the league thus far.
The Gunners ideally need an upgrade on the duo and we believe Cunha would be a perfect fit.
The Brazil international has the ability to play anywhere in the final third, but he has been most impressive as a centre-forward or from the number 10 position.
Arsenal require a dynamic striker and Cunha has all the traits to become an elite marksman.
He is good with the ball at his feet and averages almost two successful dribbles per game. He has the ability to win regular duels and make recoveries too.
On top of this, he has the knack for making goal contributions. Cunha has netted seven goals this campaign with three of those from outside the box.
He has also delivered three assists and could have had more. The former Atletico Madrid man has created nine big chances, averaging 1.8 key passes this term.
Arsenal obviously have a long-term interest in Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak, but Cunha would be an equally good signing and could be recruited in January.
Wolves purchased the 25-year-old for £44 million last year. We believe a package of around £60m could test their resolve, given their financial problems of late.
