Santi Cazorla is happy for former Arsenal teammate Mikel Arteta over his succeed this season.
Cazorla recalls how Arteta showed his coaching potential while a player.
He told the Guardian: "Being injured, watching games together, he would take the controller and put it on pause. He'd say, 'Go back, go back,' and rewind 30 seconds and ask, 'What do you see?'
"He said: 'Look at this guy here, how badly he's placed. If he goes here, and he goes there, this space opens up.' Every game, pausing every 20 seconds. The game is over and we're still in the 20th minute. I told him: 'Dude, you're already a coach'.
"He was like, 'Yeah, I see things that make me think I should be'. We talked a lot. He still liked to play, but working with Pep Guardiola at Manchester City was an opportunity, the best learning experience. I told him: 'Mikel, if that's what moves you, go for it'. He has turned out well."
