Arteta goes full Wenger as he struggles to do up his coat after EPL win

MIKEL ARTETA emulated former boss Arsene Wenger last night... by struggling to do up his coat.

The Spaniard, 42, was coached by the Frenchman at Arsenal between 2011 and 2016.

Wenger, 75, famously found it difficult to work the zip on his old knee-length club issue jacket.

He would often be caught on camera fumbling with it as he tried to zip it up.

Following the Gunners' 2-0 win over Manchester United last night, Arteta found a similar problem with his own coat.

As he walked away from his Amazon Prime Video interview, the Arsenal boss could be seen wrestling with his zip.

After finally getting it closed, he saw the funny side and appeared to laugh at his own struggle.

Following the incident, former reporter Matt Scott posted a video clip of it.

He joked: "So Mikel did take something away from his time under Wenger."

Fans loved the throwback, with one replying: "Haha we need a side by side clip! This is brilliant!"

A second wrote: "Wenger disciple."

And another added: "Arsenal heritage."

While Arteta reminded fans of Wenger with his coat antics, one pundit compared him to Tony Pulis last night.

Working for Amazon Prime Video, former Tottenham and Man Utd star Dimitar Berbatov made the comparison.

He said: "Probably the Premier League is the only league in the world where you have so many players around the goalkeeper, pushing, shoving, making chaos. Normally it is going to be a foul.

"Not here. You need to be strong. And that's probably why he [Ruben Amorim] was watching from the side, he was like, 'What is going on with my keeper?'

"You need to work on that. As we joke, Arsenal is the new Stoke City, right?

"Depending on set-pieces, which can give you the win, as it was today."
