While the others were shaking and shivering in the final hours of Deadline Day, Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta enjoyed a cosy Thursday night, with no stress whatsoever.GAME OVER! Transfer Deadline Day was super-exciting, but the time is offThe Gunners are at the top of the Premier League table with all five wins, and it seems they also had a perfect transfer window. All the signings – five of them – were done long before Deadline Day. That’s why the Spaniard avoided making costly panic signings. I just call to say Arsenal are nothing less than perfectAfter seeing a third and final bid of £25m rejected by Aston Villa for midfielder Douglas Luiz, Arsenal concluded their summer business, with Arteta refusing to bring an unsuitable player to the club for the sake of it.Speaking ahead of Arsenal’s clash against Manchester United, Arteta talked to Sky Sports about the transfer window. “Yesterday, we could have done something if it was the right player, the right deal, and something we could afford.”Sometimes you have to react to something that happens. We would have done that, it was a real possibility yesterday. We tried, but then we kept the discipline to say it had to be the right player for the team and the club.”##EDITORS_CHOICE##He continued: “We have done a lot of things and still have a lot to do in this squad, you see the amount of departures compared to the players we have recruited. The club has done a phenomenal job and put everything on the table to bring the profile of players we want.”We only have to bring top quality talent, people through the door and have to be very disciplined because, in those moments, you can make huge mistakes that cost the club and the team a lot. We want to avoid that as much as possible, “concluded Arteta.ENGLISH PREMIER LEAGUE – MATCHDAY 6Saturday14.30: (8.00) Everton (4.70) Liverpool (1.48)17.00: (2.30) Brentford (3.50) Leeds (3.35)17.00: (2.14) Newcastle (3.50) Crystal Palace (3.80)17.00: (2.14) Nott.Forest (3.50) Bournemouth (3.80)17.00: (1.53) Tottenham (4.50) Fulham (7.25)17.00: (2.40) Wolverhampton (3.25) Southampton (3.40)17.00: (1.58) Chelsea (4.30) West Ham (6.75)19.30: (8.00) Aston Villa (5.30) Man.City (1.43)Sunday 16.00: (1.96) Brighton (3.50) Leicester (4.50)18.30: (2.70) Man.Utd.
