Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta insists his side will learn from defeat before the second leg of their Champions League last-16 tie in north London.
The stats may make nervy reading after defeat at Porto in the Champions League last 16, but Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta insists his side will "learn" before the second leg in north London.
They are also competing in the Champions League for the first time since 2017 and looked far short of their free-flowing best at the Estadio do Dragao."If you want to be in the quarter-finals you have to beat your opponent and that will be the purpose and the plan." The Gunners boss named an unchanged side for three successive games and after free-scoring league wins at West Ham and Burnley, this seemed like a game too far for the same set of players.
"I am a big fan of a certain Brentford forward that I won't name, but it is one of those. Arsenal are a really big team, but with all the set-pieces, if you've got someone like that in your team you are an even bigger threat."After 21 goals in five successive league games, Arsenal failed to find the net against Porto
