Arsenal vs Chelsea: Gunners look to reignite title charge against torrid Blues

What has Mikel Arteta said?

Mikel Arteta is proud of his players and wants them to bounce back from the disappointing result at City.

He said: “We are Arsenal Football Club, we have to be here to win every single trophy. This is the demands. The reality will happen in the last 15 years, that’s not the reality, but the demands have to be there.

“The things I like the most, I’ll repeat myself, great, we are in Champions League, and everybody is still unsatisfied with the situation. And this is what we need if we’re going to move forward as a club and as a team.

“Win tomorrow, that’s what we have to do. Within the disappointment and the spirit around it, two things: recognise what a lot of people have done at the club to get us back into the Champions League because it was already a difficult thing to achieve and not a lot of people were very optimistic that we had the ability to do that at the start of the season.

“Second thing is what I like the most, is even achieving that with six games to go I don’t think it has happened in more than a decade of the club, but we’re still not satisfied and we’re still upset and we want more.

“So we want be the club that we want to be to be consistently with the best that’s the mentality that we need and that’s what I loved more the last few days.”
