Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta revealed he has compiled a dossier of evidence on rival Premier League managers leaving their technical areas. BBC News reported that Arteta spoke after receiving his second yellow card of the season for the offence during Arsenal's victory over Everton. [1][3]

Arteta claimed that he is far from the worst offender in the league despite his reputation for straying outside his designated space. According to BBC News, Arteta stated that some managers leave the touchline up to 36 times in 10 minutes without receiving yellow cards. [1]

Arteta joked that officials should place sensors around the touchline area to monitor movements. He acknowledged that he must be careful regarding his own conduct during matches. [1]

Arteta is a Spanish professional football manager who previously played for Everton and Arsenal before taking charge of the North London club. He also served as an assistant manager to Pep Guardiola at Manchester City before his appointment at Arsenal. [3][4]
