ARTETA claims that Arsenal players are not happy despite Manchester United’s victory

Michel Arta praised the winner of his team in Arsenal after he opened his campaign in the Premier League by beating 1-0 over Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Ricardo Calviuri scored the only goal in the 13th minute, as he bounced from a close distance after Altay Bayindir goalkeeper failed to deal with the Declan Rice angle.

For Arsenal, the result reinforced its transformation into “Big Six” clubs. In September 2020, less than a year after the period of Arta, Gunners only won among the previous forty matches against this opposition.

Now, they have not been defeated in 21 consecutive groups in the league against Liverpool, Chelsea, Manchester United, Manchester City and Tottenham during the past two seasons.

In thinking about progress, ARTETA said: “Well, I think this is the case … 18 years or 22 years have passed here at Old Trafford without winning before my coming, and now I go to the dressing room, we won here in the first match, and we are still happy. A good sign.

“A big and large result that reaches the first match of the season in Old Trafford. When you feel that they are building something special and momentum with new signatures and want to kick the season in a good way and you are able to get out of winning, I think I am very happy.”

Arteta was equally happy with the way his players responded to difficult moments during the competition.

“We have shown it in a different way today. I think we did two things well. One, to take the group, then we respond to the mistakes in particular. Some of them are necessary, some of them are unusual. But the way each player’s reaction gave us the opportunity to win the game.

If not, this is impossible. This is related to how to compete and how much we want to take. “

After that, Arsenal returned to the UAE to host Leeds on August 23. Manchester United returned to work the next day, where he traveled to Kravin Koch to face Fulham.
