Mikel Arteta hit a rebellious tone despite Arsenal falling 1-0 to Hong Kong’s arch rival Tottenham, the sole defeat of Asia’s preseason tour.<\/p>\n

The Gunners boss admitted that the outcome left a “bad taste”, but insisted that the experience was worth it as his side strengthens preparation for the new Premier League season.<\/p>\n

He states:<\/p>\n

“We’re ahead of what we expected in many areas, and despite this result leaves a taste, I think it’s going to be positive. It reminds us how great the margin between victory and loss is.<\/p>\n

Arsenal returned to London on Friday to close the preseason with a friendly home between Villarreal and Athletic Bilbao before launching a league campaign with Manchester United on August 17th.<\/p>\n

During the match in Hong Kong, new striker Viktor Gyoker played a quiet 15-minute minute minutes, making his debut a later replacement. However, Arteta is sure that the Swedish forward will soon show his true quality.<\/p>\n

“It was a short one, but at least that debut was no longer intrusive now,” Arteta said. “Next time, I’m sure that’s not true for Emirates’ Villarreal.”<\/p>\n

He also praised 20-year-old Portuguese defender Christian Mosquera. “I’m so happy to have both here,” Arteta said. “They add a lot of value. You’ll see the energy and quality they bring right away.”<\/p>\n

There’s even better news on the injury, with Arteta revealing that Gabriel, Riccardo Calfioli and Julien Timberber (all absent from Hong Kong) are expected to be suitable for the season opener.<\/p>\n

“We’re in a good place,” he added. “Now we’re focusing on strong preseason finishes.”<\/p>\n
