Arteta praised the team's mentality, stating, "I'm really pleased. We've experienced how difficult it is to win at Fulham in the past two seasons, and we experienced it again today."
He acknowledged that the team didn't start well, with some mistakes that gave Fulham momentum, but they were able to build dominance throughout the game.
Arteta emphasized the importance of consistency and patience, saying, "You have to be very patient against this team. They're well-organized, they know how to adjust things, and they're solid."
Regarding Trossard's goal, Arteta noted, "That's a great thing to have around the team, because we're not relying on one or two individuals to score. The fact that goals can come from different sources is very important."
He also highlighted the team's defensive performance, stating, "Another clean sheet. I don't think we conceded a shot on target today, which is a great foundation to give us the possibility to win games."
