“Mikel Arteta is moving like Tony Pulis”

Rio Ferdinand Presents
About this episode

Following the North London derby, Rio and Joel sit down with former Arsenal midfielder Jermaine Pennant to discuss how confidence affects players. From the Arsenal defensive pair to Marcus Rashford, Rio and Jermaine reveal how they dealt with periods of low confidence and also how self confidence affected their game at different stages of their careers.


The trio also look at the impact of set-piece coach Nicolas Jover on Mikel Arteta and compare the Arsenal set-pieces to the tactics employed by Jermaine’s former manager Tony Pulis.


Rio analyses the performances of Erling Haaland, Matthijs de Ligt and young winger Tyler Diblin after his impressive performance against Manchester United.
