Arsenal head coach Mikel Arteta commented on his team's performance after the defeat in the FA Cup quarter-final match against Southampton (1:2).

" I'm not going to criticize them for this mistake. What they have to go through physically - the deeds from them would have suffered a lot today. I will kidnap them like never before. If you want to take responsibility for yourself – that’s what I.

We have the most important and shortest period ahead of us.

Every season there are two or three such moments, and the first one is due to such complexity. We need to rise up and show ourselves. It is necessary to adapt to the wind, to injuries, to any circumstances.

If you want to lose all tournaments, you need to adapt to any context. And now you need to adapt to the difficult or frustrating moments of the season, even difficult - but, in my opinion, something else,” Arteta said to Sky Sports.
