Arteta was furious about the standard of Premier League officiating in Arsenal바카라s 1-0 loss to Newcastle on Saturday 바카라 in particular how the contentious winning goal from Anthony Gordon was allowed to stand after a video review checking three potential infringements.
Arteta said after the match he felt 바카라ashamed바카라 and 바카라embarrassed바카라, and that the decisions reached were a 바카라disgrace바카라. He was supported by a club statement published Sunday which urged English soccer바카라s refereeing body to 바카라address the standard of officiating바카라 in the league.
바카라It is my duty to be defending my players, supporting my players, supporting my club, defending my people in the best possible way and I do it time after time,바카라 Arteta said Tuesday. 바카라And I do it not the way I feel but with the evidence and being as clear as possible.바카라
A report in British newspaper The Daily Mail said Arsenal was ready to cite a number of decisions that have gone against them, since last season, in the club바카라s next meeting with referees in a bid to prove a pattern.
Arteta appeared to refer to that by saying his anger didn바카라t build up 바카라overnight.바카라
바카라We have a duty to express how we feel with the evidence that we have and the history of what happened,바카라 he said. 바카라We have to really stand for our people, our values and what we are.바카라
Some, like former Manchester United and England defender Gary Neville, believe Arteta and Arsenal are setting a dangerous precedent by going so public with their criticism of officials.
Arteta simply says he is being honest and attempting to improve the game.
바카라We all want the same,바카라 he said, 바카라but we have to understand we have to be there 바카라 be clear and honest. Be respectful but clear and honest, value what we have and make sure we continue evolving the game the way we want.바카라
Arteta was speaking ahead of the team바카라s Champions League match against Sevilla at Emirates Stadium on Wednesday.
Arsenal leads the group on six points after three games and Arteta said his players could be galvanized by what happened against Newcastle.
