Mikel Arteta\u00a0believes\u00a0Arsenal\u00a0are finally moving in the right direction\u00a0after an impressive 3-1 comeback win at Leicester.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

David Luiz and\u00a0Nicolas Pepe\u00a0scored either side of Alexandre Lacazette\u2019s penalty at the King Power Stadium.\u00a0Youri Tielemans\u00a0opened the scoring for the Foxes but their top-four hopes were dented, with\u00a0Harvey Barnes now set to be out for at least six weeks with a knee injury after being carried off during a miserable afternoon.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

It was also Arsenal\u2019s first win at a side in the top three of the Premier League since 2015 as the Gunners backed up\u00a0Thursday\u2019s last-32 Europa League victory over Benfica<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cThe team is clearly improving, it\u2019s taking a direction I like. It\u2019s about consistency,\u201d said Arteta, who was able to rest Bukayo Saka and keep Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang on the bench until the final six minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\u201cWe are still giving things to the opposition – we did it against Benfica and we did it today. It\u2019s something we have to eradicate to give ourselves the best possible chance.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
