Graeme Souness sends Mikel Arteta Arsenal warning and rubbishes Jurgen Klopp comparison

Graeme Souness has warned Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta to be "careful" after his touchline outburst.

Arteta was heavily criticised for his outlandish protests towards fourth official Jarred Gillett during the Gunners' frustrating 0-0 draw at home to Newcastle United on Tuesday. The Spaniard claimed that his side, who sit top of the Premier League table by five points, should've been awarded two penalties, hitting out at the "scandalous" decisions which referee Andy Madley made post-match.

But Souness, who got caught up in his fair share of touchline malice during his days as a manager, thinks that Arteta must deal with the pressure at Arsenal in a better way. The three-time European Cup winner also doesn't believe that you can compare Arteta's antics to when Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp kicks up a fuss on the sidelines.
