Mikel Arteta will be absent from the touchline during Arsenal\u2019s trip to Aston Villa with the Spanish manager serving a ban.<\/p>\n
The former midfielder received a third yellow card of the season in his side\u2019s win over Luton.<\/p>\n
Referee Samuel Barrot deemed that Arteta had over-celebrated Declan Rice\u2019s late goal that snatched victory in a seven-goal thriller.<\/p>\n
Erik ten Hag, Arteta\u2019s counterpart at Manchester United, was also recently forced to watch from the stands after disciplinary issues. <\/p>\n
But Arteta could yet face more punishment.<\/p>\n
The 41-year-old was charged by the Football Association (FA) for making comments critical of the officials after Arsenal\u2019s defeat to Newcastle earlier this season.<\/p>\n
The Arsenal manager insists, though, that he will continue to show emotion on the touchline.<\/p>\n
\u201cI don\u2019t know how to stop it,\u201d he said. \u201c[The Declan Rice goal] was a really emotional moment with everybody bouncing around and you lose sense of where you are and the space you have to be in.<\/p>\n
Mikel Arteta\u2019s celebrations at Luton earned him a booking <\/p>\n
\u201cIt was unfortunate as now I cannot be next to my team on the touchline but it is a decision that they make looking strictly at the rules.<\/p>\n
\u201cAfter that I straight away sat on my seat and stayed there for 30 seconds but that was after the emotion. In the moment I think it is very difficult to demand that.<\/p>\n
\u201cI would like to be with my players because we work closely every single day to achieve what we want, which is to win the games and when you get those moments in sport you should be able to do that.<\/p>\n
\u201cI understand as well that there are certain boundaries and you have to respect that you are at an away ground but if I was given the chance I would be there jumping.\u201d<\/p>\n
Arteta will watch the game from the directors\u2019 box, though is permitted to Arteta to take the pre-match team talk and to join his players in the dressing room at half-time.<\/p>\n
