"It's a clear red card, Arteta said. I've watched it 10 times. If you have ever played football, it is a red card. It's the second time in two games because I guess Manchester City, when Kai Havertz goes through, Khusanov fouls him, 1-1, the title is there it is a red card, guys."
"These are the margins as well and hopefully that's going to change. I'm here to give my opinion and somebody that has been in the game for a long time you talk to any of the players, because the trajectory of where the ball is, there's no keeper there."
Mikel Arteta stated that the Premier League title race would have changed if Manchester City had been reduced to 10 men during their match against Arsenal. He argued that City defender Abdukodir Khusanov should have been sent off for a foul on Kai Havertz. After Arsenal's victory over Newcastle, Arteta also criticized the decision not to red card Newcastle goalkeeper Nick Pope for a foul on Viktor Gyokeres. Arteta emphasized the importance of these decisions in the title race and expressed hope for change in officiating.
