Mikel Arteta makes brutally honest admission about taking Arsenal ‘backwards’
Arsenal were knocked out of the Champions League on Wednesday, and they head to Anfield this weekend sitting 15 points behind Premier League champions Liverpool
Mikel Arteta has admitted Arsenal have gone “backwards” this season.
Arteta was brutally honest about his team falling short in the Premier League title race ahead of their trip to newly-crowned champions Liverpool on Sunday. Arsenal have enjoyed a memorable Champions League campaign after reaching the semi-final stage but they are currently more than TWENTY POINTS behind last season’s tally.
The Gunners are on 67 points with three games to go, they still have not secured a Champions League place and will fall well short of their total of 89 last year and 84 the year before. Gunners boss Arteta has been outspoken on how injuries and suspensions have hit his team but they have fallen well behind Liverpool when it was supposed to be Arsenal who stepped up.
