Mikel Arteta may have just admitted that he punished Noni Madueke at Arsenal recently

Noni Madueke has received a fair bit of praise from Arsenal fans for his performance against Leeds United. Mikel Arteta surprised everyone when he chose the former Chelsea man to replace the injured Christos Tzolis on the left wing ahead of Eberechi Eze.

It wasn’t a flawless performance by any means, and you could argue that Madueke failed to track James Justin’s run when he scored the opener for Leeds.

However, the Englishman was Arsenal’s most effective attacker and played his part in the comeback. Arteta was really pleased with Madueke after the game, but he dropped a hint about what happened not too long ago.
