Mikel Arteta expressed disappointment over the 0-0 draw with Everton, as Arsenal missed a crucial opportunity to close the gap on Premier League leaders Liverpool. He highlighted the lack of a spark in the team despite creating several chances, stating, "At the end, you need a spark and you need to be precise. We had the chances; this could have been 2-0 or 3-0, and then nobody is talking about it." His frustration is evident as he reflects on the missed opportunities.
Arteta acknowledged the energy and effort displayed by his players during the match, noting, "They're not going to talk about all the incredible things the team did in the game. It's certainly not energy when I see my team trackback. It is unbelievable." However, he stressed that despite the commendable energy, what was needed was that extra edge, that spark, to convert chances into goals.
Looking ahead, the Gunners are rumored to be interested in Mohammed Kudus from West Ham as they aim to bolster their attacking options. Fans have been vocal about the need for a new striker who embodies a killer instinct in front of the goal. The competition for Kudus, including interest from Newcastle and Liverpool, means that Arsenal will have to act decisively if they want to secure this promising talent.
