Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta expressed his opinion on the defeat to Manchester City in the match of the 33rd round of the English Premier League.
The day before, the Citizens won with a score of 2:1 and reduced the gap to the leading Gunners to three points, having a game in hand.
" There is an element of luck - whether the ball goes into the goal or not. In the second episode? there was a rebound and the ball bounced towards Haaland. There is also individual skill - in such moments you need to be cool, precise and ruthless. This is exactly how you should be.
You could see at the end of the game and from the very beginning the mood of the team. In some moments we could have been more focused, but overall we played the game the way we wanted and had a great chance to win.
We were very close, but not close enough, and now we must admit that we missed an opportunity, a big opportunity. But there are still five matches to go. We need to reboot and move on, because there is a lot of positive things about this game.
We play a lot, in fact we are the only ones who constantly play and play, and this also matters. But the positive is that we have seen our level and there are still five games ahead. We will fight until the end. We fully believe we can do this.. We showed again what kind of team we are. “Everything is in our hands, the opportunity is still there,” Arteta said in his comments to the BBC.
Earlier, the media revealed Arsenal's list of goals for the summer. The club is trying to attract three Newcastle players at once and intends to acquire them.
