Mikel Arteta was proud of his side after their 2-0 defeat to Liverpool on Wednesday evening. However, the Spaniard was in a frosty mood for his press conference when asked about what lay ahead in the very near future.
The Premier League rescheduled the originally postponed Liverpool clash and gave Arsenal little recovery before their trip to Aston Villa for the early 12:30 Saturday kick off. Arteta was not happy whatsoever.
After being asked the question regarding the club’s tight schedule, Arteta bit back hard. He went as far as to say that the scheduling had effectively handed an advantage to their top four rivals.
