Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta reveals he clips up Premier League managers stepping out of technical area

Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta says he is compiling footage of rival Premier League managers repeatedly leaving their technical areas after receiving his second yellow card of the season in his side’s 2-0 win over Everton.

Arteta joked about installing sensors on the sidelines, having been booked by referee Tony Harrington in the second half at the Emirates Stadium.

The Spaniard faces a one-match touchline ban if he receives another yellow card but believes other top-flight managers have repeatedly breached the rules without being punished.

"I do have to be careful, yeah," said Arteta. "I'm going to put sensors there!

"There are other managers (doing it), there are managers that have the record in the league: 36 times in 10 minutes they leave the touchline, no yellows.

"So I am clipping all of that so I have a massive storage of images, so if somebody comes to me (I can say) I'm not in the record yet, somebody else has the record."

Arteta hails Arsenal 'mentality'

Arsenal moved level on points with leaders Manchester City thanks to goals from centre-backs Ezri Konsa and Gabriel.

Konsa opened his account for the club in the seventh minute, converting from close range following a Martin Odegaard corner as the Gunners scored from a set piece for the first time this season.

Gabriel sealed victory with a 68th-minute header after recovering from an injury scare which left him down on the pitch requiring medical treatment.

Arteta believes the Brazil international's determination epitomises his team's character.
