Arsenal have the youngest team on average in the Premier League this season. Their inexperience has cost them at times, particularly in those recent defeats that have seen their grasp on the top four slip away.
But Arteta has insisted that the club will continue with their policy of using young players. He continued: “They’re not going to be kids for the rest of their lives. Next season, they’ll be more mature.
