Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta shared that his club were ten times better than last year despite failing to beat 10-man Fulham today.<\/p>\n
The North London club thought Bukayo Saka and Eddie Nketiah’s goals would secure the win after the away team netted in the 1st<\/sup> minute at Emirates Stadium.<\/p>\n But, after Calvin Bassey received a red card, Joao Palhinha netted in the 87th<\/sup> minute to tie the match 2-2, and the 10-men Fulham won a point away from home.<\/p>\n “We go 2-1 up, and you must do everything not to receive a goal; you cannot concede the goal after how we played,” the manager shared.<\/p>\n “We should have netted 5, 6, even 7 goals.<\/p>\n “If I compare the match this campaign to last campaign, we were ten times better today. At least 10.”<\/p>\n “In the 1st<\/sup> \u00a0minute, when you make the mistake that my side made, and you just concede a goal, the match becomes much more difficult,” added Mikel.<\/p>\n \ud83d\udde3\ufe0f| Mikel Arteta on #ARSFUL<\/a>: \u201cIt is really difficult to accept that we haven\u2019t won the game.<\/p>\n \u201cObviously we made life really hard for ourselves giving the goal away in the first minute, but after that, the team had the response that we all expected.<\/p>\n \u201cWe dominated the game from\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/sKXMICVDaK<\/a><\/p>\n \u2014 Arsenal Buzz (@ArsenalBuzzCom) August 26, 2023<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n
