Arteta on lacazette confidence

Arteta keen to rebuild lacazette confidence.

"Alex is a player that I always liked. He is the type of striker who can do a bit of everything" said Arteta. 

"He is very talented at linking and combining with each other. The work rate and the way he compete for every ball it is rare to find that in a striker. Then he has the ability to but the ball at the back of the net when he is in fr on of goal".

"It has been a difficult season for him and not him for other players too. We have been trying to manage that. He has a lot of continuity with him but he has a spell where he was finding it difficult to score goals.

"In few weeks (before lockdown) he looked much better and was a threat and he scored some important goals as well. I want to give him that confidence".

"I think the way he came on against city in a difficult scenario, he showed a lot of wiliness to help the team and his teammate ... I am happy for him.

He also added: " Everyone needs it's confidence probably the strikers more than any other player on the pitch. 

"At the end confidence is related to the amount of goals they score per minute.

At the end they can do everything very good but judged on the amount of goals they scoring".
