Following the tirade of goals against Arsenal during the first half of their game against Liverpool last Saturday at Anfield midfielder Mikel Arteta claims he has never seen manager Arsene Wenger so angry.
In the end Arsenal’s 5-1 defeat was their second heaviest of the season after losing 6-3 to Manchester City.
Following their first big loss the Gunners pulled themselves together taking 20 points out of the next 24 that were available, and Arteta feels that the club must try and do it again starting with Manchester United on Wednesday night at the Emirates telling Sky Sports: “We know we need to improve and face those games in a different manner because after 19 minutes we were 4-0 down and it was like a car crash.
“The manager was really upset at half-time, that’s normal because it wasn’t good enough for this football club. It was the angriest I have seen him.”
Arteta feels that there is no point dwelling on the loss and that the team now has to bounce back as they have done once already this season.
“We have had two big crises already,” the former Everton player added.
“I think the Manchester United defeat was a different game to this, but City and this one are really hard to take. We have to react because there is nothing we can do about this now.”
