    WHAT TEDDY SHERINGHAM SAID

    Ex-England international Sheringham told casinoapps.com, with Arteta considered to be undeserving of the one accolade that he has secured: "Will it be the only trophy he wins? He can have that one.

    "As for who I think should have won, you know what? I think Pep Guardiola. I just think he’s smooth. Everything he does, I think he's smooth. I love his manner, I love the way he is, I love his positivity, I love his enthusiasm, his professionalism, and he's cool as well, isn’t he?"

  • WHAT NEXT FOR MIKEL ARTETA?

    Arteta said when being told that he had landed the Premier League’s best-looking award: "My mum and dad should be very proud for the job that they did." The 43-year-old is tied to a contract at Emirates Stadium through to the summer of 2027.
