Arteta, Aubameyang sorry for Arsenal defeat
August 30, 2021
The way the Arsenal players reacted towards their fans at the full time whistle at Manchester City said it all, as Mikel Arteta is under huge pressure after a horrendous start to the season.
Arteta has now overseen three-straight defeats without scoring to start the league season, as Arsenal have never done that in their history.
The Gunners have conceded 10 goals and scored zero and sat bottom of the Premier League table after their 5-0 defeat at Manchester City.
Things basically couldn’t get much worse for Arsenal, as even though they are missing some key players through injury and illness in midfield and defense, the lack of fight and belief is quite shocking to see.
Below is reaction from Mikel Arteta, Pep Guardiola and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang, as Arsenal now have the international break to stew over a simply awful start to the new campaign.
Arteta tells BBC Sport it is about one thing for Arsenal now moving forward: Pride.
“For me it is pride and more willingness to change the situation. A lot happened in the las three weeks we are in a difficult position. The international break will do us some good to recover some of the big players we are missing at the moment and hopefully we come back we are in a better place.”
Arsenal captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang has not minced his words after that display. At all:
This is the baddest guy around town. Hook me up so that we can share some routine infor in the area.
