Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said he is the reason the club’s attacking midfielder Fabio Vieira does not get game chances.

Arteta made this known in a post-match statement after Arsenal’s Premier League 2-2 draw with Fulham on Saturday.

Vieira put up an impressive performance for Arsenal when he came off the bench as a replacement for Kai Havertz vs Fulham at Emirates.

The Portugal star earned the penalty from which Bukayo Saka drew Arsenal level against Fulham.

“Fabio [Vieira] was excellent and it is the first minutes he’s played in the PL this season and I was really impressed with how he wanted the ball and how positive he was, the decisions that he made and the attitude that he had straight away.

“Fabio was involved in everything we created and I am really happy with that. To see players with the ability to make and take chances with quality.

“It is my fault that Fabio has not played more and today he gave me reasons to play him more,” Arteta said at his post-match press conference.
