Pre-match interviews with Mikel Arteta and Riccardo Calafiori ahead of Napoli v Arsenal in the UEFA Champions League, replacing the scheduled press conference due to flight issues.
Arteta discusses starting another European campaign after last season’s run to the final, Arsenal’s away performances and the challenge Napoli will pose.
Calafiori reflects on his early-season form, his Premier League Player of the Month nomination and the work behind his attacking role.
The defender also previews returning to Italy and the atmosphere in Naples, while both discuss the confidence generated by Arsenal’s perfect start to the season.

An English translation of Calafiori’s Italian answer is included in the subtitles 👍
Best Left Back in the EPL and Italy’s best player
This guy won two trophies what do they an dominant lol
Im confident against Napoli.
We just need to pepper Napoli's goal.
They just let Inter have 29 shots.
And in Napoli's last league game against Como, Como had 21 shots.
That's 50 shots they've faced in 2 games!!!!!!
Arsenal can finish the game off in the first half here!
Will Tzolis and Eze both start??? They are the ones we need to keep taking shots!
Luv luv luv Ricky he is soooo awesome keep it going Rick
