A video of Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta trying to motivate his players by using a light bulb has surfaced online after it was shown in the Amazon Prime Documentary series, All or Nothing. In the video, Arteta is trying to instill some energy in his boys by citing the example of a light bulb and how it is nothing without current. He also goes on to explain how the players can transmit energy like the light bulb. 

This is not the first instance where Arteta has come out with something unique drill. The Spaniard showcased some of his 'unusual' man-management techniques throughout last season's campaign. Back in October, he called for his Arsenal squad to rub their palms together in an attempt to get "everyone with the same energy".

In another instance, Arteta was seen fuming with anger after Arsenal’s shocking defeat to Nottingham Forest in the FA Cup. After a big dressing down, he lifted the kit trolley and slammed it down before walking off. "It's nowhere near guys," he says. "It's f****** s***. I'm telling you, s***." Nonetheless, Arteta was back with his drills three months later when Arsenal were to face Brighton. 

“[Thomas] Edison invented the light bulb. Today I want to see a team that is connected because a bulb by itself is nothing. I want to see a team that is connected with each other and that shines. And you want to transmit to him [your team-mate] light and energy and passion and how you play football, and you two the same. And each of us plays the game connected, because what happens when we play connected, guys? What is the next thing that happens? That we connect with 60,000 people [the fans] who create more energy,” Arteta says in the viral video.

“Because at the end is electricity, that through heat creates light and life. Because if not it would be f****** dark if this guy doesn’t have the idea to do that. And I want you to play like this today, because as good as we are it depends on one thing. What makes us special is our attitude, and today I want you to play with that attitude. Go out there, f****** turn the light on, and play football. Let’s go!”
