Arteta On His Love For Blues And Everton Exit

During 11 years at Everton, David Moyes made a habit of picking up a bargain and seeing them go on to become firm fans' favourites.

There are few, if any, better examples than Mikel Arteta, a £2million buy who remains one of the Blues’ best-loved foreign imports.

In May 2018, for the first time since leaving the Club seven years earlier, Arteta sat down with evertonfc.com to discuss his six stellar seasons with the Toffees, the agony of missing the 2009 FA Cup final... and the wrench of leaving Goodison - and Evertonians - behind.
