Mikel Arteta berated the Premier League for allowing scheduling which sees his side play Wednesday night and then Saturday’s early kick-off, after watching his Arsenal team suffer a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool.
The Gunners have been the beneficiaries of a very relaxed run of fixtures so far in 2022, only playing more than one game in a week on a pair of occasions - when they had the two legs of the Carabao Cup semi-finals to take part in, where they were also beaten by the Reds on aggregate.
