Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta has hailed Hale End Academy, Myles Lewis-Skelly following his side’s UEFA Champions League 3-0 win over Monaco on Wednesday.
Arteta handed Lewis-Skelly a rare start against Monaco due to injuries in Arsenal’s back.
Two brace from Bukayo Saka and a goal from Kai Havertz gave Arsenal the win over the French Ligue 1 side at Emirates Stadium.
Speaking after the game, Arteta said at his pre-match press conference that Lewis-Skelly did so well against Monaco.
“Myles Lewis-Skelly did so well. Really proud moment. He’s one of our own”.
“It’s just a joy to watch him, a privilege to be able to give the chance to somebody. He took the chance,” Arteta said.
Arsenal’s next game is against Everton in the Premier League this weekend.
