Raheem Sterling has heaped praises on Mikel Arteta for the way he has changed the mentality at Arsenal since he was appointed as manager.
Recall that Arteta was named manager after Unai Emery who spent two years at the helm of affairs was sacked last year December.

Mikel Arteta came on board in January and he seems to have settled the team. The players looked to be playing with confidence in every game.

The Spanish boss will be at the dug out when the Arsenal travel to Etihad Stadium on Saturday to face Manchester City.

It's the third time that Arteta will be facing his former boss whom he spent two years as he's assistant.

Pep Guardiola defeated Mikel Arteta in the league at Etihad Stadium last season but Arteta got one ahead of the former Barcleona coach in the FA Cup semi final last season. 

Mikel Arteta guided the Gunners to victory against Chelsea in the final to clinch the trophy. Arsenal have also picked thr community shield this season already.

Speaking ahead of the game which will kick off s 5:30pm today, Sterling believes Arteta has influenced the players at Arsenal.

"He's a person that had a lot of say here," Sterling said. "The manager trusted him here and he had a lot of influence on the players here and the team as well.

"So I knew once he went into Arsenal that it would be a great opportunity for him but also he would definitely implement what he wanted to bring in.

"And he's a person that will put his foot down and not let things slide as you can see with the boys at Arsenal. They know if they don't run they are most likely not going to play.”
