Arteta praises Hincapie


Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said that defender Piero Hincapie was really good during the 3-0 Champions League win over Slavia Prague on the road.

The Gunners continued their brilliant start to the campaign. They picked up a 10th-straight victory against the reigning Czech champions at the Fortuna Arena.

Mikel Merino was the pick of the players with a brace, playing as a makeshift striker. Piero Hincapie made his full Champions League debut for the club at left-back and was superb too.

When asked about Hincapie’s showing, Arteta said: “I think he was really good, really strong, really efficient & now he’s got some minutes in the last week with two games.”

Hincapie got the surprise nod over Myles Lewis-Skelly at left-back yesterday. The Gunners graduate has been the regular starter for the Champions League games.

Arsenal will return to Premier League action against Sunderland at the Stadium of Light on Saturday evening. Riccardo Calafiori is expected to return in the left-back role.
