"It's hard because everyone really wanted it today and I know the supporters wanted it. The fact that we haven't managed to deliver it is very, very painful. We've had a remarkable eight months together, and now there's an international break. We all go into there with a very hard feeling and pain, and we're going to use that as fuel for the next two months."
"It's painful not to give them what they are hoping for and what they were cheering for, but we'll recover from that and go again."
Mikel Arteta believes Arsenal will channel the pain from their EFL Cup final loss to Manchester City into motivation for future matches. City won 2-0, marking Arsenal's second defeat in major cup finals. Despite the setback, Arsenal leads the Premier League and has favorable draws in the FA Cup and Champions League. Arteta emphasized the importance of using this painful experience as fuel for the team's upcoming challenges, expressing confidence in their ability to recover and continue striving for success.
