He was, however, playing exactly the same role as Arteta does now. So many people still overlook the importance of the guy who ticks everything over. Because they pass sideways, or backwards or anywhere but fuckin Hollywood. It's simple, but very important. Ome of the reasons so many people love what Arteta has done for us.
