Arsenal find their level
After five wins in a row that had built up confidence levels to a cautious sense of optimism around the Emirates, Wednesday night was something of a reality check for Arsenal. This was no surprise for Mikel Arteta though.
"No, there are better teams in the country because that's what the league table shows," said the Spaniard prophetically in his press conference before the game. "We haven't done anything. What we are doing is try to improve, understand better what we want, being much more consistent in performance and results, but nothing else as yet."
