EPL: Arteta speaks on Arsenal being ‘bottlers’ ahead Man City vs Newcastle
Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has stated that he does not recognize the term “bottlers” in his team’s context.
Arteta’s comments come in response to criticism from pundits after Arsenal squandered an opportunity to extend their lead over Manchester City in the Premier League. The Gunners held a two-goal advantage against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux Stadium but ultimately settled for a 2-2 draw.
With Manchester City set to face Newcastle on Saturday, speculation has arisen that Arsenal may be faltering in their title pursuit as City could narrow the gap to just two points.
In addressing the criticism, Arteta remarked, “That’s just someone’s opinion, and you have to respect that. You lost two points to Wolves in the way the game went, and you just have to accept it. That’s part of what we do.”
