There's no doubt about it, Arsenal go into their biggest game of the season brimming with a sense of injustice. The Gunners should be five points clear of Manchester City, but due to an astounding error of officiating they find themselves with a lead of only three. Apologies have since been issued, but Mikel Arteta was not in the mood to forgive.
"I will only be satisfied if they give me the two points back which is not going to be the case," the Spaniard said in his pre-match press conference. "I appreciate what I think were really sincere, open and genuine apologies and explanations which is really good. But it doesn’t change the fact that we have two points less on the table."
He is right to be incredulous, but also right that nothing can now be done. With a rightful grievance Arsenal now head into their biggest game of the season. It's a match that is likely to be decided by fine margins and Arteta will be hoping the fury can give his side the edge.
