In the match of the third day of the English Premier League Liverpool beat at home Arsenal 3: 1. Gunners head coach Mikel Arteta shared his emotions after the loss of his positions and admitted that the opponent looked better on the field.

“We have to make sure we don’t miss that kind of goal that we conceded,” Arteta said of Diogo Jota’s ball. “Again, this shows Liverpool’s upper class. They pressured you on the first, second, third, fourth ball. You try to use the perfect high pressure, but Van Dijk pushes the ball 70 meters forward exactly up to Mo Salah’s chest. That’s high class, because Liverpool paid £ 80 million for this guy, you know? “

“In the second half they played very well. The effort they put in, the way they put pressure on the center-backs, how they attacked, while the midfielders came back every time. They reflected one perfect moment after another. We tried and they believed ….”

“This is what I asked my guys before the game. Just believe it. Play here with character and play our way. At the end of the match, we can only accept defeat, because they were better. Yes, they are better right now, so we must continue to progress. This is the level we must reach. On Thursday we will try to return to the victorious path, “he quotes Arteta’s words.
