Ethan Nwaneri was substituted in Arsenal's 1-0 defeat against West Ham due to fatigue, according to manager Mikel Arteta. The match highlighted Arsenal's ongoing issues, as the team was missing four key forwards and only managed two shots on target against a struggling opponent. Arteta addressed these performance concerns, urging a reevaluation of their efforts and quality, recognizing they need to improve their attacking capabilities to secure victories. Midfielder Mikel Merino stepped in as a makeshift striker but proved insufficient to change the outcome of the match.
Arteta emphasized the need for improvement, stating, "We have to look in the mirror at ourselves and what we can do better, the will and desire and the way we run..."
After the match, Arteta acknowledged the lack of quality in their performance, highlighting, "At this level it's not enough, you have to deliver...and we haven't done it."
