Mikel Arteta has been named as February 2024's Barclays Manager of the Month, winning the award for a seventh time.
Arteta's Arsenal were the only Premier League team with a 100 per cent winning record in February, beating leaders Liverpool, West Ham United, Burnley and Newcastle United.
The Gunners also had the best attack, scoring 18 goals, six more than anyone else, and the joint-best defence, conceding only twice.
It means only seven managers in Premier League history have won more Barclays Manager of the Month awards than Arteta, who moves level with Rafa Benitez.
