He said: “I am very disappointed with the result and the way the match ended, but we have to blame ourselves. In the second half, we showed nothing close to the standards required to win in the Premier League. It’s a moment of disappointment, and we want to talk a lot about how we feel, but now is not the right time for that.”
The Arsenal coach noted: “When you are at this level and at the top, you need to take the hits, and we deserved that today. Next Sunday we have a big match against Tottenham.”
