Arteta slams ’unacceptable’ Arsenal loss to Brighton, addresses injuries vanguardnews
Following a mauling at the hands of Man City last Wednesday, hopes were high Arsenal could quickly bounce back.
A superb Nicolas Pepe strike gave The Gunners the advantage, but two sloppy goals to concede ultimately handed Brighton a 2-1 victory.There was more bad news other than the result for Arsenal, with goalkeeper Bernd Leno appearing to suffer a serious knee injury early in the first half. Speaking to BT Sport following the match, Arteta cut a frustrated figure as he voiced his displeasure with what he had seen.“The fact we missed so many chances, the fact we gave them a goal and we did not compete for the second goal.”Regarding Leno’s injury, Arteta said: “It doesn’t look good but we don’t know anything yet.”Asked whether he believed Maupay was at fault, Arteta said: “It is too far from me, I haven’t seen the actions.
Arsenal attentions will now turn towards their clash with Southampton on Thursday evening, but Arteta was under no allusions that their performances must improve or the results will stay the same.
