Arsenal manager Arteta: If Aaron feels that way...

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta spoke about his team's ability to take on and beat Manchester City.

The Gunners coach was celebrating his team's penalty shoot out Community Shield win over last season's treble winners.

Goalkeeper Aaron Ramsdale stated the win was like the lifting of a mental block for the players against City.

Arteta stated post-game: “I don't have to agree or disagree, if Aaron feels it this way, great.

“It's (about) what the players feel when they are there and they are convinced they can beat any team.

“We knew the challenge, especially because of their maturity and how often they play finals but today we showed a real resilience and determination to fight and win the game."
