Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta had high praise for Roma boss Jose Mourinho.

In a recent interview with GoalGlobal, Arteta was asked to name the coaches that inspired him the most.

One of the first names to be mentioned by the Spanish technician was Jose Mourinho.

“José is a master of tactics, we have to put him up there with the great ones,” said Arteta.

“The way he motivates players, the way he makes them feel like the world is against them and the way he sets up his teams to be extremely competitive is nothing short of amazing.”
