Arteta claims he would be forbidden from speaking about Paul Tierney's performance in the North London Derby if he did so.

After Arsenal's 3-0 loss against Tottenham, Mikel Arteta said, "If I say what I believe, I would be banned for six months." Antonio Conte, on the other hand, said that Arteta "complains too much." With two games remaining, Tottenham is one point behind of Arsenal in the fight for the top four spots.
Post-ten man, Mikel Arteta blasted the authorities for "killing a wonderful game," saying they had "ruined it completely." After Arsenal's humiliating 3-0 loss to Tottenham in the North London derby, Tottenham manager Antonio Conte accused the Gunners of whining excessively.

As Arsenal fell down to Harry Kane's first-half penalty, Rob Holding was sent off for a second bookable offence for preventing Heung-Min Son from sprinting in behind with a shoulder barge.

Arteta reacted angrily to Tierney and VAR's decision to send out Holding despite Son's blatant elbow on the Gunners defender earlier in the match.

In the Champions League battle, Arsenal's lead over north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur has shrunk to one point with two games remaining.
Arsene Wenger's last match of the season against Newcastle United will be shown live on Sky Sports, and Arteta wanted to put Thursday's derby setback behind him.

It was Arteta's last remark. It's all over now. This has vanished. There is nothing we can do about it now. Now is the time for us to be the team you saw at the beginning. " It hurts to lose a football game under the circumstances in which we lost. On the other hand, we've got a big game on Monday, and we'll do all we can to defeat them. Each of us will take part in two contests. As soon as it's in our hands, we'll have to go to work. In this game, we proved that right from the start."

The post-match news conference of Chelsea manager Antonio Conte was filled with personal "advice" for Arsenal counterpart Mikel Arteta after the Gunners boss's criticism of Kieran Tierney's play.

A nasty tackle on Heung-Min Son by Liverpool's Fabinho during their 1-1 tie at Anfield the previous Saturday was not punished with a red card.

This is what he had to say: "In the future, Arteta has the potential to be an influential coach. However, I've spent the last six months listening to him moan a lot.

"I've heard a lot of complaints from him since he's just started at his new work. In my opinion, he has to stop blaming others and instead concentrate on his team. I believe he has to calm down and keep working since he is really talented. However, a coach who often complains is detrimental to his or her team's performance.

For me, the "red card" was obvious. Don't forget that against Liverpool, I didn't mention Fabinho's problems. Every game, we have the opportunity to voice our displeasure with the referee, his choices, and postponed games.

When the match was postponed, he grumbled about it. Back then, I argued that it was pointless to voice one's displeasure at Arsenal's decision to postpone the game because of a single player who had been diagnosed with Covid positives. "I did not forget about this."

Spurs manager Mauricio Conte stated his players were inspired by Arsenal's last-minute cancellation of the January derby, which certainly lingered in Conte's memory.

According to him, "I believe for sure [the delay was a motivating factor]. To see it postponed in such a humiliating manner got us a little irritated. It wasn't an ideal circumstance. The present, however, is distinct from what was here before.

In the past, I've indicated that I'd want to face Arsenal with as many of their players as possible. We were humiliated by a score of 3-1 in the first game, and I believe that several of my guys felt the same way. Tonight's aim was crucial."
