Mikel Arteta blasted Brazilian music in training to try ‘trigger something’ in his Arsenal team as they look to close in on a Champions League last-16 spot against Dinamo Zagreb tonight.
Hit tracks Mas Que Nada and Take Me Out to the Ball Game were played from boombox-style speakers at their London Colney base.
The ploy comes after the Gunners squandered a two-goal lead to Aston Villa in the Premier League last weekend to draw 2-2.
The north London club are aiming for a top-eight finish in the Champions League table, which would guarantee passage to the round of 16 while avoiding a two-legged play-off.
