Mikel Arteta makes embarrassing comments after defeat against Newcastle

The Gunners’ manager blamed the texture of the ball as one of the reasons why his team lost to the Magpies. According to Mikel Arteta, the ball used in the Carabao Cup is different from what is used in the Premier League which made it difficult for his players to make use of it effectively.

When asked about Arsenal’s missed chances they had 23 shots, but just three on target.
