Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta has responded to criticism regarding his touchline antics during Tuesday evening's 0-0 draw with Newcastle United.
The north Londoners were unable to break down the Magpies' resolute defence during the tense Premier League clash at the Emirates Stadium and Arteta was incensed with the officiating that saw his side denied two penalty appeals, including a moment in injury time that saw the ball cannon off the arm of Newcastle midfielder Jacob Murphy in the penalty area.
A number of Gunners ' players swarmed around referee Andy Medley appealing for a spot-kick to be awarded but to no avail before the FA added insult to injury, announcing on Friday evening that Arsenal had been charged for failing to control their players during said complaints.
