Arsenal fans have leapt to the defence of manager Mikel Arteta following his war of words with Tottenham Hotspur boss Antonio Conte.
The Gunners are due to take on Aston Villa at lunchtime on Saturday after facing Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool on Wednesday night, a quick turnaround that left Arteta extremely unhappy. Speaking about the scheduling after the 2-0 loss to the Reds, the Spaniard said: Thank you so much to the Premier League for doing that."
"And they've done it again when we have to play Chelsea and Manchester United. So if they want to give them any advantage, I say to them today: 'Thank you so much for doing that'.
