After Arsenal’s disappointing 1-0 loss to Porto in the UEFA Champions League, manager Mikel Arteta shared insights into his immediate post-match discussions with the players in the dressing room, emphasizing the areas that require improvement for future matches.
Arteta disclosed, “I told them that we have to manage the game much better when we cannot secure a win. The way we handled the ball on three occasions in deep areas, it’s not good enough.” Addressing the team’s shortcomings in possession and defensive decision-making, Arteta underscored the importance of enhancing their game management under pressure situations.
Furthermore, Arteta highlighted the team’s deficiencies in terms of offensive threat and aggression, particularly in the final third and defensive zones. He stressed the necessity for the players to exhibit more purpose and intensity to exploit scoring opportunities effectively.
