Mikel Arteta was full of praise for Thomas Frank and his side in his pre-Brentford press conference at Sobha Realty Training Centre on Friday afternoon.
Frank, who told reporters he was at Emirates Stadium for our 3-0 win over Real Madrid on Tuesday, has been the Bees boss since 2018 and is the second longest-serving Premier League manager, behind Pep Guardiola.
Asked how much he respects the work being done in west London, our manager said: “A lot. More than respect, probably it’s admiration. He's done it with a football club where everybody shares the vision, they have a very clear identity.
