Tierney credits Arteta with 18-month improvement at Arsenal

The Scotland international is enjoying his time working with the Gunners boss, with his game taken to greater heights

Kieran Tierney believes he has improved all aspects of his game over the last 18 months, with Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta considered to be a driving force behind that development.

Injuries have stunted the Scotland international's progress at times, but a standing as a key man at Emirates Stadium has been taken up at just 23 years of age.

There is still plenty of potential to unlock in the buccaneering left-back, with Tierney of the opinion that Arteta - who has faced questions of his ongoing presence in north London - is the man to lift Arsenal to greater heights.
