After Everton’s draw, MIKEL ARTETA issues a warning to Arsenal players.
Mikel Arteta, the Arsenal manager, expressed his disappointment with his team’s goalless stalemate against Everton at the Emirates Stadium on Sunday.
The Gunners’ second consecutive match without a victory was marked by the outcome, as they were unable to capitalize on their dominance.
Arteta emphasized his team’s control of the game during his post-match press conference, but he also acknowledged their failure in the decisive moments.
“I am extremely disappointed that we were unable to secure the victory, as Arsenal was undoubtedly the team that deserved to win,” Arteta stated. “We did not concede any shots, dominated the play, prevented them from running, and did not concede set pieces.”
Excellent high-pressure pressing.We created opportunities, but the final 20 meters were insufficient to score goals, which is essential given our level of dominance.
You must endeavor to maximize the likelihood of winning, and when you draw, you desire more.
Despite our victory, we would still desire more; however, I am unable to request much more from the lads beyond ensuring that the ball is placed in the net.
also contemplated the difficulties of dismantling Everton’s resolute defense, acknowledging Jordan Pickford’s critical saves and the opposition’s dedication to obstructing shots.
“I am extremely disheartened because, when you exhibit the level of performance that we demonstrated today, it is imperative that you secure the victory,” Arteta stated.
“However, this is football; the final 20-25 meters are the most challenging.” Everton deserves recognition for their defensive strategy, Pickford’s saves, and their determination to obstruct attempts.
“Can we improve our performance, provide superior quality, and generate that magical moment on an individual basis?” Indeed. However, this is not always an effortless endeavor.
elaborated on the challenge of fostering the requisite precision and energy in critical areas when asked whether it is possible to coach such decisive moments. “That is a challenge,” he acknowledged. “You require precision and a spark.”
We had opportunities, and if we had scored two or three goals, this would not have been a topic of discussion. The outcome is 0-0, and the team’s remarkable accomplishments will not be addressed.
