"It's been tough, but that is the beauty of football: it is 100% better now. This chance to play three days later rather than just stay home and think about it was welcome."
"Maybe in a way, yes. But I'm still really disappointed and sad. The talk of doom and gloom steadily building since the Carabao Cup final defeat by Manchester City would have surely reached deafening levels."
"That was a clear demonstration of our identity, which maybe we lost a little bit in the last couple of games. Mikel Arteta demanded his players rediscover their identity."
Riccardo Calafiori expressed relief and excitement after Arsenal's recent victory against Sporting, following a tough period marked by defeats and Italy's World Cup failure. He acknowledged the disappointment of missing out on the World Cup but emphasized his commitment to succeeding with Arsenal. The team's performance against Sporting, aided by David Raya's saves, showcased their identity, which had been lacking in previous matches. Calafiori looks forward to the upcoming Premier League fixture against Bournemouth, aiming to extend their lead at the top of the table.
