EXTRAORDINARY, INCREDIBLE David Raya | Mikel Arteta | Sporting 0-1 Arsenal

©️UEFA 2026 A very happy Mikel Arteta praises the 'extraordinary, incredible' David Raya after his superb performance in Arsenal's Champions League victory in Lisbon. TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 Intro 0:01 Very happy it was a big night for us. It was a big night in the season. We played an opponent that was very tricky. We wanted to be a bit crispier! 1:04 Finishers? We talk about identity, we are going to need them in the crucial moments. 1:58 David Raya? He is extraordinary, incredible. With that it is enough, we are very happy to have him. 2:20 Response to last two defeats? That's when you have a difficult period, the best thing you can do is observe. See how they react, how they look at you, how they judge you. Do they start to criticise other people? I cannot be prouder to be at a club where all they do is ask how to help. 3:14 Raya? The role of the goalkeeper has changed rapidly. We ask a lot of him but he handles it. He has so much courage and will. 3:57 Kai Havertz? He's lifted the [Champions League], he's been part of something and that is a really important thing. 4:25 Game plan to stop Sporting playing? Yes and if we can do that on top of that score three goals the even better. We know that the atmosphere here is something they create is really dangerous. They are a team that create big problems. 4:59 The demands since August have been to win, win, win. The players need to have some perspective. 5:39 Not about quality or execution. Those are the things that have brought us here, but the rest we have it. 6:13 Very happy to hear Gyokeres’ reception. When a big player leaves it’s never easy. It says a lot about the supporters here. @HaytersTV – Football Up Close.
