Book Review – Revolution: The Rise of Arteta’s Arsenal

Revolution: The Rise of Arteta’s Arsenal is the story of how Mikel Arteta turned Arsenal back into the most innovative, exciting and feared teams in the Premier League.

Having cut his teeth as an assistant to Pep Guardiola, Arteta returned to Arsenal in the winter of 2019.

Through Covid, fan revolt, player bust-ups, dissapointments and an FA Cup win, Arteta’s single-mindedness revolutionised Arsenal, turning them from a dying former great club into title challengers once more.

This book, by renowned journalist Charles Watts, explores the workings of Arteta’s philosophy and how he transformed both on and off the pitch.

With chapters on his tactical innovations, in-game strategies, transfer insight and, of course, an account of the 2022/23 season, Revolution is the story the extraordinary process and the first draft of Arsenal’s new history.

Tomorrow there is an event at the Tolly where Charles Watts will be hosting a Q&A from 7pm onwards. He will be joined by James McNicolas (Gunnerblog) and Sam Dean from the Telegraph.

The Stoke Newington book shop will be at the event selling copies of the book. Alternatively, the book can be ordered here.
