The most popular word, ‘excited’, was picked by Gabriel Martinelli, William Saliba, Jorginho and Jakub Kiwior.

No 1 goalkeeper David Raya wrote ‘confident’, summing up Arsenal’s great form, while Kai Havertz – who has scored in his last four league games – went for ‘enjoyment’.

Eddie Nketiah and Thomas Partey were more understated – as they said ‘happy’ and ‘good’ respectively.

Bukayo Saka is having a special season – and that’s exactly the word he opted for after blitzing his way to 16 goals.

Fans were in favour of the idea and voiced their approval over the positive feeling from the players.

One wrote: ‘Love their answers’, while another said ‘that’s the spirit, my players.’

Arteta is known for his unique methods to inspire his players before games.

During Amazon’s fly-on-the-wall documentary series All or Nothing that looked at Arsenal players in the 2021-22 season, he famously used a lightbulb to motivate his team, urging them to ‘turn the light on’.

In another instance, he brought a club photographer to the dressing room to give a team talk before the North London Derby.

Arteta also brought up a tweet from Ivan Toney mocking the Gunners after beating them with Brentford earlier in the season ahead of the reverse fixture.

And last summer the Spaniard even introduced a club dog to their London Colney training ground, calling him ‘Win’. He said the labrador would help the players generate a ‘family’ atmosphere at the club.
