Arsenal London head coach Mikel Arteta has stood up for his team's Ukrainian defender Oleksandr Zinchenko, who is currently under fire of harsh criticism.
Mikel Arteta"We love Alex, he has given us so much. And not only has he given us so much, but, in addition, he is a player who has different qualities. He has incredible courage to play football given the circumstances in his country and the demands he faces here.
And I would like to address Arsenal fans directly. Stay with our players and support them, because then he will surely perform better," Arteta said at yesterday's press conference for the Champions League quarter-final return leg against Bayern Munich.
