Arsenal coach, Arteta named EPL Manager of the Month for the third time this season

For the third time this season, Arteta was named Manager of the Month in the EPL.

After winning the award in January, Mikel Arteta has now won the Barclays Manager of the Month award twice in a row.

Arteta maintained Arsenal's pursuit of a first Premier League trophy since 2003/04 by leading his leaders to seven points from three games, all of which were against title rivals.

Arteta led Arsenal to their first victory over Tottenham Hotspur since 2014, which they followed up with a thrilling 3-2 turnaround victory over Manchester United. The month began with a goalless draw at home against high-flying Newcastle United.

It extended Arsenal's streak of 13 consecutive Premier League games, their longest since 2005.
