Was Arsenal's Mikel Arteta destined to become a manager?

With Arteta now an established manager in the Premier League and having turned the ship around to where the Gunners are now expected to go on title runs, we have seen the Spainard look at home in the dugout.

However, with the Gunners are currently on their worst form slide in recent memory under Arteta, losing three straight games in all competitions, things aren't going smoothly in north London.

Though it's not for a lack of trying as the Gunners are still creating chances for fun - they just can't convert them.

Arsenal are now in Dubai as the players look to hit the reset button and come back fresh as the Gunners will welcome Crystal Palace to the Emirates on 20 January.
