He was settling into his new surroundings in one training session where the squad was being taken through a possession game.
The American goalkeeper then reveals he gave the ball away and immediately cut a frustrated figure.
Speaking to MLS's official website, Turner explains that Arteta walked up to him and told him he didn't want to see such kind of reaction. He said this while shoving his new recruit.
Arteta was basically like, 'I don't want to see that. I don't like seeing that reaction. I want to see you pick yourself up and keep going.
The Arsenal boss has often been described as an intense and aggressive manager. His styles and tactics appear to be paying off, with Arsenal currently sitting pretty at the summit of the English Premier League table.
The Gunners have only lost one game in their opening seven games. Turner, meanwhile, made his competitive debut for Arsenal in their Europa League clash against FC Zurich.
He will face a hard task of usurping Aaron Ramsdale as Gunner's first choice as he looks to make the cut for the FIFA World Cup.
