His team scored an incredible 14 goals in four matches, beating Everton, AFC Bournemouth, Fulham and Crystal Palace.

The Spaniard had a big influence on the incredible 3-2 turnaround win over AFC Bournemouth, bringing on Reiss Nelson to set up the equaliser before scoring the winner.

Arteta wins the award for a fourth time this season, moving just one behind Jurgen Klopp's record of five in a single campaign, set in 2019/20.

It makes it a double sweep for Arsenal, after Bukayo Saka won the EA SPORTS Player of the Month award.

Arteta beat fellow nominees Roberto De Zerbi, Unai Emery and Pep Guardiola after votes from the public were combined with those of a panel of experts.
