I was quite direct with him, said Arteta. When you hear that noise, you can understand people's expectations.I sat down with William and asked him that question. He said: 'No I want to stay here and play for you, I'm very happy as always.' That's great to hear.
That [competition for places] is exactly what we want, said Arteta. That they're giving us and me those headaches , because I mean that they are so connected with the team that they really want to help the team and deserve to play, and everybody will play a lot of minutes.
Martin will be training with us the next two days so hopefully he'll be available for the game, Arteta said.
