ARTETA refused to compare the club’s seasons, but it feels that the bilateral nature of how to judge success and failure is not useful now.

He said: “Anxiety? Well, yes from outside. I mean, you will only evaluate that, then use these two words (success and failure) and that’s all.

“I don’t know what this, because last night is a really good example of this. Or the final (Champions League) between Inter and PSG, because they will not be judged unless they won it.

“If it’s not, you’ll get again like the past 12 years that they have tried. It is completely different from that.”
