Speaking ahead of the Champions League draw, the Spanish coach declared that his team will approach a potential tie against Paris Saint-Germain with unwavering belief, ready to meet the high-stakes occasion head-on.\n\nArteta's comments came in the wake of the quarter-final draw, which pitted the Gunners against either Bayern Munich or PSG. While acknowledging the formidable quality of both potential opponents, Arteta framed the challenge not as a deterrent, but as a necessary step for a club with ambitions of conquering Europe. \"We knew the level of the opponent we were going to face, whether it was Bayern Munich or PSG,\" Arteta stated. \"We know their quality, that's all. But obviously, we also have a lot of confidence and, when that moment comes, we will rise to the occasion.\"\n\nThis mindset is central to Arteta's project at the Emirates. Since taking charge, he has systematically built a squad capable of competing on multiple fronts, transforming Arsenal from a team outside the Champions League places into genuine title contenders in both the Premier League and Europe. The willingness to face elite opposition is a hallmark of that transformation.\n\nThe potential matchup with PSG carries significant historical and tactical weight. The French champions, led by the prolific Kylian Mbappé, represent a different kind of challenge than the structured might of Bayern Munich. PSG's attacking flair and individual brilliance would test Arsenal's defensive organization, which has been a cornerstone of their success this season under Arteta's guidance.\n\nArteta also addressed the external pressures and criticisms that accompany a club of Arsenal's stature competing at this level. He views them as fuel for improvement. \"I accept the criticism, whether it's positive or negative, it's what makes you better,\" he explained. \"When you want to aim for higher standards and levels of performance, when you want to compete in the two most prestigious competitions in Europe, you have to be prepared for that, because you know the challenge and the difficulty it represents. It makes you better, that's for sure.\"\n\nThis philosophy underscores a broader shift in mentality. For years, Arsenal's Champions League campaigns ended in the Round of 16. Now, under Arteta, the expectation is to progress deep into the tournament. Facing a superpower like PSG is not seen as a luckless draw, but as the exact type of benchmark the club needs to overcome to achieve its ultimate goals.\n\nThe implications for the tie are profound. Arsenal's confidence is not blind; it is rooted in a season of consistent performances, a robust defensive record, and a dynamic attack spearheaded by Bukayo Saka and Martin Ødegaard. Arteta believes his system and his players are now equipped to handle the unique pressures of a two-legged knockout tie against Europe's elite.\n\nFor the Arsenal squad, this declaration from their manager serves as a powerful rallying cry. It sets the tone for the preparation ahead, focusing on self-belief and readiness rather than fear of the opponent. The message is clear: Arsenal is no longer just happy to be at the top table; they intend to compete for the biggest prizes.\n\nBased on reporting from Foot - actualités, mercato, info & vidéo en continu.","news","Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta expresses high confidence ahead of a potential Champions League clash with PSG, stating the team will rise to the occasion and","328245740100915201","326135636794806272","AFC Champions League Elite","0","2026-05-08T16:29:00Z","arteta-on-psg-arsenal-s-ucl-confidence-explained","L'Equipe","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.lequipe.fr\u002FFootball\u002FVideo\u002FLigue-des-champions-arteta-nous-arriverons-avec-beaucoup-de-confiance-face-au-psg\u002F20232247#at_medium=RSS_feeds","326257545968619520","Arsenal",[74,77,78,79,80,81,82,83,84,85,86],"326257534170042368","326222707169431552","326222712936599552","326222767416414208","326255039846813696","326255040715034624","326255041625198592","326255042816380928","326257536078450688","326255037950988288",[75,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97],"Bayern München","Anderlecht","Paraguay","Lesotho","FK Partizan","Levski Sofia","Partizani","FC Levadia Tallinn","Paris Saint Germain","Crystal Palace","Arteta on PSG: Arsenal's UCL Confidence Explained",[100,121,142,159],{"awayTeamId":-1,"awayTeamName":-1,"body":-1,"category":64,"excerpt":101,"homeTeamId":-1,"homeTeamName":-1,"id":102,"leagueId":67,"leagueName":68,"matchId":69,"matchName":21,"publishedAt":103,"slug":104,"sourceName":72,"sourceURL":105,"teamId":106,"teamName":107,"teamIds":108,"teamNames":114,"title":120},"French fans display 'Courage Hugo' banner in support of Liverpool's Hugo Ekitike, who ruptured his Achilles tendon and will miss the World Cup.","338076964512337921","2026-06-04T19:50:02Z","hugo-ekitike-injury-courage-hugo-banner-at-france-match","https:\u002F\u002Fwww.lequipe.fr\u002FFootball\u002FActualites\u002FLes-supporters-francais-apportent-leur-soutien-a-ekitike-blesse-et-absent-pour-la-coupe-du-monde-courage-hugo\u002F1681882#at_medium=RSS_feeds","326257545918287872","Liverpool",[106,109,110,111,79,80,81,83,85,112,113,78],"326222711447621632","326222712533946368","326257535994564608","326257807785463808","326257576805142528",[107,115,116,117,90,91,92,94,96,118,119,89],"France","Ivory Coast","Nantes","Reading","Tune","Hugo Ekitike Injury: 'Courage Hugo' Banner at France Match",{"awayTeamId":74,"awayTeamName":75,"body":-1,"category":64,"excerpt":122,"homeTeamId":85,"homeTeamName":96,"id":123,"leagueId":67,"leagueName":68,"matchId":124,"matchName":125,"publishedAt":126,"slug":127,"sourceName":72,"sourceURL":128,"teamId":110,"teamName":116,"teamIds":129,"teamNames":135,"title":141},"With Saliba injured, Konaté set to start for France vs Côte d'Ivoire on Thursday.
