Who has Arteta's phone number?
Who has Arteta's phone number? I have an advice for him. If he doesn't want Real Madrid to come back, which will be very difficult for Real Madrid, he shouldn't play defensive game. He should order the boys to come out and play normal match. He shouldn't also be too careful. With the quality of Arsenal players, Real Madrid will do absolutely nothing against them, but if they become defensive, fearful and too careful, they'll recieve 2 goals even in the first half.
The best form of defence is attack. Immediately the match starts, Arsenal should rush them and see if they can get 1 goal more and end the day.
Playing defensively against a team like Real Madrid could be counterproductive. The club has some good players who are very skillful and fast and can break any defense no matter how strong. Since Arsenal have a three-goal advantage, it could also be a good style if they are willing to suffer to withstand the pressure. It means that all the players will be willing to chase Real Madrid players around from the beginning to the end of the match. However, if the Gunners can use the counterattack and get at least a goal, they might end up winning the game.
But another good pattern will be to come out and play. If they were able to win against Real in Emirates stadium, they could still get at least a draw or a slim loss in Santiago Bernabéu.
