Nottingham Forest lost 2-1 to Arsenal in the Premier League last night but Mikel Arteta praised Taiwo Awoniyi.
The Spaniard was speaking with TNT Sports.
So, what has the Arsenal boss said about Forest striker Awoniyi? Let’s take a closer look…
What Mikel Arteta said about Forest star Taiwo Awoniyi
Well, it would appear as though the Arsenal boss is a huge fan of the Forest player – and he raved about him after last night.
Awoniyi was introduced at half-time of the clash and scored a late consolation as Forest somehow managed to lose the game.
Arsenal were growing frustrated when a pretty nothing attempt from Gabriel Jesus managed to be diverted into the net via Matt Turner.
The return of Awoniyi did at least bring a smile to the faces of Forest supporters and his goal drew praise from Arteta.
He said on TNT Sports: “He is a real threat and obviously with a deep block they defend, when there are spaces behind you, he manages to take the first touch, he is a really dangerous player.
