O'Leary feels Arsenal on track under manager Mikel Arteta

Former Arsenal captain David O'Leary feels the club is on track under manager Mikel Arteta.

O'Leary is an unpaid ambassador for the Gunners.

He told the Daily Mail: "I was on the flight home from Olympiacos in February when Mikel Arteta got on the plane. I felt like the boss was in the building. There is a fear, respect. I never got that with Unai Emery.

"He seemed overwhelmed. I saw it spinning out of control a mile off. Now, I think they're on the right track. Arteta should have replaced Arsene Wenger."
