Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta on Shakhtar Donetsk: "I think they have decided to use football with a lot of positive things that brings to life in a really powerful way and it is remarkable that they are managing the situation and the unity of the country.

"The capacity of the sport as well to bring joy to people's life and that's something we have to be conscious of."

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta: "There is obviously a lot of sympathy for the situation they are in and how can I imagine. The incredible attitude they have towards the situation (in Ukraine). The things that they have to put in place to be able to continue to play football matches - it is remarkable.

"We welcome them here tomorrow in the best possible way."

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta: "We cannot continue to play with ten men, easier to say it then to get it done. Specific moments. Reacting, we have a defeat. Very specific conditions as well. Let's move on, take that pain we have and use it tomorrow night."

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta on red cards: "Playing with 10 men always is an issue. The trust is, when you analyse it, three different very actions and the outcome of them, the reasons are very different. Regardless of that we cannot continue to play with ten men at this level.

"We need to eradicate that, it's clear. The reasons, how - it doesn't matter. We have to focus.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta: "We want to win in any context. Very difficult. The players that we had out, the schedule, the games we had to play but that’s the reality.

"It could have been a very different narrative but the reality is we didn’t and now the reality is one game in six months.

"Now we have to win again in the context that we have lost for the first time in six months."

Arsenal don't have long to think about the defeat at Bournemouth as they are back in action in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

The main questions for Mikel Arteta ahead of this presser will be whether his team have a discipline issue and if they can play and win without key players Martin Odegaard and Bukayo Saka.

Arsenal have four points from their first two games in the new Champions League format and a win against Shakhtar at the Emirates tomorrow will put them in a comfortable position.

What happened?

William Saliba was initially shown a yellow card for a last man tug on Evanilson, who had got ahead of Saliba chasing a loose backwards pass from Leandro Trossard.

After consultation from video assistant referee Jarred Gillett, referee Rob Jones reversed his decision and gave a red card.

What's the law?

IFAB states that it is a red card offense when "denying a goal or an obvious goal-scoring opportunity to an opponent whose overall movement is towards the offender’s goal by an offence punishable by a free kick."

What was said?

"It's very difficult to win in the Premier League with 10 men for 60-70 minutes, it's just an accident waiting to happen," said Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta.

"We have had to go through it in three games and that cost us the game."

Arsenal

Gunners boss Mikel Arteta is set to face the media ahead of their Champions League game against Shakhtar Donetsk on Tuesday.

Arsenal's unbeaten start to the season was ended by Bournemouth this weekend and one of the big talking points from that game was the sending off of William Saliba - he'll miss their game against Liverpool on Sunday.

Bukayo Saka, Martin Odegaard and Jurrien Timber were all absent for the trip to the Vitality Stadium. Oleksandr Zinchenko was on the bench against Bournemouth but hasn't featured since August after suffering a calf injury.

Rezaa: Hi Phil. With Liverpool now four points ahead of Arsenal, would a win at the Emirates, which seems possible given the injuries to big players like Saka and Odegaard, effectively take Arsenal out of the title race event at this early stage in the season?

Phil: Morning, Rezaa. I think it would be too early to suggest an Arsenal loss would take them out of the title race as there would still be 29 games to go after next Sunday but there is no doubt the stakes have been raised for them after their loss at Bournemouth and wins for Liverpool and Manchester City.

The loss of William Saliba to suspension after his sending off at The Vitality Stadium certainly does not help their cause.

What happened?

In the first half of Ipswich Town's 2-0 defeat to Everton, Tractor Boys winger Jack Clarke had been awarded a first-half penalty by referee Michael Oliver following contact with Toffees winger Dwight McNeil.

After a look at the monitor and conversations with video assistant referee Graham Scott, Oliver reversed the decision after judging Clarke had actually kicked McNeil.

What was said?

Ipswich boss Kieran McKenna said: "Jack [Clarke] rolls inside the box, he is around the penalty spot and about to shoot and Dwight McNeil lunges his leg across the line of the ball and Jack's swing of the ball when he is about to probably score.

"Of course he kicks Dwight McNeil, but I understand you can't lunge across the ball like that when someone is in their backswing. I'm sure Sean [Dyche] will see it differently but in terms of clear and obvious, unless I'm wrong, I can't see how that is clear and obvious. It's a really debatable decision, but from everything I've heard is that they wouldn't go against that decision."

Wolves boss Gary O'Neil claimed the original call for offside against Bernardo Silva should have stood.

"I am trying to remain calm," he said on Sky Sports. "I have been involved in a few of those and not had many go in our favour so was expecting that outcome.

"There is some grey area that can go either way and once it was like that I wasn't confident it would go our way."

Replays of the incident also showed Silva backing in and nudging his Portugal international team-mate Sa as the corner came in.

The goal was initially ruled out for offside, but a player cannot be offside from a corner.

By the time Stones connected with the ball, Silva had moved away from Sa and deemed not to be impacting the keeper's vision or ability to get to the ball.

It could, however, be argued Silva should have been penalised for a foul on the goalkeeper.

Rich: Morning Phil, I’m noticing more often, the Liverpool game yesterday an example, that sides are going against a strong press and tending to sit and wait a lot more. Is this a worry for managers that like to play out from the back, draw sides in and counter-attack, like Manchester City. We’ve seen in a few games recently that they struggle when having to break teams down that set up shop in this way. Do these teams need a plan B?

Phil: Hi, Rich. I think Liverpool are going to be interesting viewing this season because they are adopting a more measured, composed approach themselves, rather than the thrilling full-tilt approach under Jurgen Klopp.

The wins may be narrow, but they are still wins, and yesterday was a big test against a Chelsea side I think will be challenging for the top four.

Liverpool have the players to adopt a “plan B” without a doubt and I’m sure Arne Slot can be adaptable – and with players of the calibre of Mohamed Salah there is every chance “plan A” will work eventually.

Liverpool have such attacking quality that sitting back against them is a dangerous game as they have players, such as Salah, capable of producing that one moment of class to win a game.

That 2-1 victory over Wolves made it 31 Premier League matches unbeaten for Pep Guardiola's side - a new club record.

Their last defeat in the top flight came against Aston Villa in December 2023.
