    Mikel Arteta is not happy in the technical area.

    He is waving at both the ref and the assistant as Bukayo Saka is down injured and he thinks Arsenal should have a foul.

    Saka is now getting treatment on the pitch.

    Anon: If Arteta can manage to get Gyokeres and Havertz playing together then Arsenal could just achieve a 2nd place finish or at least 3rd.
