Mikel Arteta has been crowned Premier League Manager of the Month after guiding us to the division\u2019s only 100% record in March.<\/p>\n
The boss was deemed the most worthy recipient by a panel of experts and supporters, edging out competition from Eddie Howe, David Moyes, Regis Le Bris and Fabian Hurzeler. <\/p>\n
It is the first time the boss has won the divisional award since February 2024, and his eighth since becoming our boss in December 2019. Only five other managers in the league\u2019s history have scooped the accolade more than our boss – Sir Alex Ferguson, Arsene Wenger, Pep Guardiola, Moyes and Jurgen Klopp.<\/p>\n
Victories against Chelsea, Brighton & Hove Albion and Everton meant that we were the only team in the division to win all of our Premier League games during March, which allowed us to open up a nine-point gap to chasers Manchester City in second place. <\/p>\n
We edged out the Blues on the first day of the month by a 2-1 scoreline to record a big win, and followed it up three days later with a 1-0 success at Brighton thanks to a Bukayo Saka strike.<\/p>\n
But the month\u2019s big moment came when Mikel\u2019s introductions of Viktor Gyokeres and Max Dowman from the bench saw them net both goals in our last-gasp 2-0 success over the Toffees to take another huge step towards potentially lifting our first league title in 22 years.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
