Former Chelsea midfielder, Emmanuel Petit, has advised Myles Lewis-Skelly to play football with more maturity.
Lewis-Skelly, who recently broke into Arsenal’s first team as a full-back, has been quite impressive so far.
The defender was in the news for scoring in the 5-1 win over Manchester City earlier this season.
Following his goal, the 18-year-old mocked Manchester City and their main man, Erling Haaland by copying his meditation pose.
Petit, who spoke to CasinoHawks, slammed Lewis-Skelly and asked him to be humble.
“Myles Lewis-Skelly has to show more maturity and my main piece of advice would be to stay humble. Stay humble, do your talking on the pitch.
“I’ve been impressed with his performances so far but the mocking of Erling Haaland and Manchester City… come on,” said Petit.
The young defender picked up a red card in the 1-0 defeat to West Ham United last weekend.
Petit labeled the incident as Karma and stated that his former side lacked character.
“It’s karma, you need to focus on winning each game and now it’s another red card.
“How many stupid red cards have Arsenal had this season and even since Mikel Arteta arrived?” said Petit.
Arsenal’s next game is against PSV on Tuesday, March 4, in the Champions League Round of 16 first leg.
