Speaking after the defeat to their north London rivals, the Arsenal boss claimed his side should've secured all three points, saying: We should have won it. The most important aspect is what you create offensively compared to what we allow the opposition to create. Those things are strong in this game. The most likely outcome in a game like this is that Arsenal win because of the way we play and that’s the fact.
"Most of the time we are going to win this match and we need to keep doing the things that leads to that.So it’s an odd feeling sitting here with that because of course we are very disappointed with that, disappointed with our efficiency but from a performance point of view, we played well enough to win the match and we should have won it."
