Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta says that new signing Viktor Gyokeres could be involved against Tottenham tomorrow.
-TIMESTAMPS-
00:00 - Intro.
00:10 - First North London Derby outside of the UK: A great idea I think to bring football tradition, a rivalry, but at the same time to do it in a completely different country. I think it's brilliant.
01:00 - Are you taking on a mentorship role with the 15-year-olds?:I think to be fair I think the whole squad is really good in this way to help the young players.
01:51 - Does Gyokeres have a chance for the game tomorrow?:
Yes, I understand he's only done today's session and yesterday very little. We're going to assess tonight.
02:30 - Viktor is with the squad now, what are the attributes he brings?: You've all seen what he's done in his career so far and especially the last season at Sporting the numbers speak for themselves. But he's a very complete player.
03:23 - What more is still needed?: I said that I was extremely happy with the way that we have approached the window and how aggressive we have been.
03:58 - How is Viktor settling in?: With the language and everything it is a bit easier for me to help him. We can speak our own language. And Scandinavians always bond well together, in that way it has been really natural.
04:53 - Gyokeres took the 14 and he doesn’t seem concerned about that?: I use the word conviction and that’s the first thing that I noticed when I spoke to him. Someone very determined, someone that was already really attached to the club.
05:27 - People speak about numbers, does it matter what number you have?: I think it is different to every player. To some players it is really important and others they don’t care.
06:09 - How is Hong Kong?: There are similarities, the city has changed a lot. I was one more time here. Very impressive.
06:52 - What do you think about Spurs this season?: Well that’s great to hear that especially from someone like Frank that I respect immensely.
07:33 - Does today and tomorrow show Viktor how big the club is?: I think it already has. When the news broke and then you realise the magnitude of the club that you’re going to be representing, and how viral everything goes so fast these days, I think his immediate reaction was, ‘Wow’.
08:21 - What do you think of such a high profile friendly?: No I love it and I think we all do. I think we’re all excited to play in front of so many supporters and as Mikel said here we really felt that love and the connection here.
09:06 - What do you think of HK fans?: I think the support and the reception we’ve had here has been amazing.
09:57 - What’s your goal next season?: To do better than the previous one, and I think we all know what that means.
