Jamie Carragher has claimed Arsenal will have a “massive issue” over Mikel Arteta ’s future if they do not win a trophy next season. The Gunners are on course to finish second in the Premier League for the third season in a row, though there has been a drop-off in the strength of their title challenge.

A commendable comeback at Anfield did not help Arteta’s fury but the visitors saved themselves from a fourth defeat in a row

Mikel Arteta says Arsenal’s first-half performance against Liverpool was “unacceptable” and he was frustrated they were forced to show a reaction to earn a point at Anfield. Arsenal were trailing by two goals at half-time after Cody Gakpo and Luis Diaz struck midway through the first half.
