Teenager Ethan Nwaneri caught the eye with a sensational strike as Arsenal eased to a 3-0 win at Championship side Preston on Wednesday. Arteta's place in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup was sealed as Gabriel Jesus and Kai Havertz got the other goals for the Gunners.
"He did it yesterday in training so we’re used to that. He’s a big talent, he’s got the right attitude, he’s got the right players and context around him and we need to make sure that we put brick by brick in the right order but we have some player here," Arteta told reporters about Nwaneri.
"He’s going to really dictate how fast that’s going to go but I’m really happy with him. So much personality there, he wants every ball, and he wants to make things happen. Outside and around he’s still a bit quiet as usual, he’s 17 years old, very respectful, his work ethic is tremendous and he loves what he does, you can tell that," the Spaniard added.
