Arteta beaming as Arsenal thrash Chelsea in Florida: Lot of positives | OneFootball

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta was beaming after their 4-0 thumping of Chelsea in Florida.

Goals from Gabriel Jesus, Martin Odegaard, Bukayo Saka and Albert Sambi Lokonga clinched the Florida Cup for the Gunners.

Asked if fans should be excited, Arteta said, "Yes, but it was a friendly match. As you could see there are a lot of positives to take from the game. The way we played, the intensity we showed, the way we were trying to show who we are as a team.

"But at the same time, it's just a test match. Don't get carried away. There are still a lot of things that we have to get better at and do better. But I think it's good to get some momentum, finish the tour in the right way, give some enjoyment to our fans and everybody that's been contributing to make this tour happen. Now it's time to go back to London, to focus and keep making improvements and steps forwards.

"There were a lot of positives, there are a lot of things we can do much, much better than we have done today as well and we have to continue to improve as a team."

On Oleks Zinchenko's debut, Arteta added: "He was desperate to play and I knew that. It was a maximum 45 minutes but you could see straight away he was comfortable. He understands everything that I want, he understands the process and I thought he had a really good game."
