Arsenal boss Arteta: A season of connection

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has dubbed this season one of "connection".

Arteta was asked to describe how he'd describe the campaign ahead of Sunday's finale.

He said, "Probably, connection. That's how I would do it. I think the team has connected, I think the club has connected, I think the departments at the club have connected, I think the crowd has connected with the team, with the club, with the ownership, with the rest of the world. I think we have connected with our DNA, who we are, with our values and our way of doing things. We have to keep doing that.

"First of all, we show gratitude from our side for everything they've done. Not only for the players but the staff as well and all the work they've put in, all the energy, all the passion. We did a little dinner last week to be together.

"That moment in the stadium is really nice when we have our families, we have everybody there, and it's a good moment to wrap the season up and look at each other and go again."
