Arteta’s temper could make him miss the most important match of the season

Gunners’ boss Mikel Arteta is known for his passionate touchline antics. He has the worst disciplinary record of any Premier League manager this season, picking up five yellow cards.He was booked against Fulham, Brighton, and Luton, and in both matches against Chelsea.And his lack of control could cost the North Londoners dearly because Arteta could miss Arsenal’s final match of the season against Everton in a potentially seismic blow to their title chase.As Arsenal’s sprint to the title is going down to the wire with Manchester City, the Gunners are a point ahead of the Cityzens but have played one game more, meaning they have just two matches left and are counting on their title rivals to slip up somewhere.##NAJAVA_MECA_8088244##Every detail is crucial and having your manager missing for one of the biggest games in the club’s history is not the fate most desire.However, that could be a reality for Arsenal depending on how Arteta behaves in their penultimate fixture against Manchester United.The Spaniard has already picked up five yellow cards and if he gains one more, he will be forced to serve a one-match suspension.Arteta has already been forced to sit out one game due to suspension – their 1-0 defeat away at Aston Villa in December.

Arsenal have won 14 of their 16 Premier League games in 2024, drawing 0-0 with City and losing 2-0 to Aston Villa.However, such is the brilliance of Pep Guardiola’s side that Arsenal’s stellar from has not been enough to see them pull away.Managers are punished for every three yellow cards they get.
