Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has reacted to their 1-0 defeat at Newcastle United in Saturday’s early kick-off.
Alexander Isak’s powerful header in the first half proved to be the winner at St James Park.
For the Gunners, it is a big blow to their Premier League title hopes, as they could go eight points behind Manchester City by the end of today.
After the game, Arteta told Premier League Productions: “We deserved to lose today. I thought we started really well and were really dominant. We didn’t defend the box well enough. Credit to them. They scored a great goal with a good ball.
“Then the game changes and you start to play a different game. You have to adapt and we didn’t do that well enough. I am very frustrated.
“We got dragged into a game they were looking for constantly and we couldn’t play the game that we wanted.
“We had two big chances – Mikel had a big one, Declan had a big one. We lacked answers.”
