From the source

Rival fans have been frequent critics of Mikel Arteta's bizarre tactics during his time as Arsenal manager, but no one can deny many of them have worked for the manager and his team.

From passionate speeches about Thomas Edison and the lightbulb to blasting speakers during training, the Spaniard has had his fair share of quirks throughout his spell in charge of the Gunners, and his latest may be the most crazy one yet.

A report by Daily Mail Sport has revealed that Arteta and Arsenal consulted NASA and others for information on injuries, data analytics and technology, and these different methods have shown once again how far the Gunners boss will go.
