How Mikel Arteta turned Arsenal’s season around with Dubai trip

Arsenal’s warm-weather break in Dubai has really kickstarted their 2024. Since returning from their mid-January break Arsenal have had five straight wins and scored 21 goals.

These have come from nine different scorers. This is significant because Mikel Arteta stressed the importance in Dubai of everyone chipping in.

The trip just helped Arsenal unwind in a fresh setting. Arteta felt some privacy and time to relax would aid his players down the stretch. He also invited the players’ families over in the hope of further relaxing his squad.
