Arsenal is still fine, but this loss does of course have some drawbacks as a draw would have been much better as it would have kept the distance between Arsenal and Newcastle. Now Newcastle is in the middle of the competition for the top ranks again and that raises pressure for all of the teams at the top. But until mid of December Arsenal will have a few games in the Premier League that won't be as hard as the one against Newcastle.
To be honest, I didn't watch this match. but when it comes to football, winning and losing is a common thing. as a fan of the Gunners, I'm fine, after all, the difference in points from the top of the standings is not a significant distance. Even though there are debates about goals and defeats, I think in football these are normal things that happen.
Well, what sometimes annoys me is that Arteta rarely responds quickly when his team is having difficulty creating opportunities. He always waited, only after the match was nearing the end, did he try to do something. In the match against Newcastle, the absence of G.Jesus made Arsenal a little difficult.
As for Nketiah, he was only able to make 1 shot off the mark, 1 chance, and even that didn't put Newcastle's crossbar in danger. As for Trossard, Arteta should replace Nketiah earlier. Or, there are many ways and rotations that Arteta can do to make his team superior. Instead of trying to get 3 points, it was Arsenal who conceded in the 64th minute. But, I can understand it, Arsenal has another match which is also important even though their opponent is Sevilla. Like it or not, with Gabriel Jesus' injury, Arteta has to smartly save his players' energy. I just hope that in the next matches, Arsenal will show a very solid game. plus, chasing the difference in points from the teams above their ranking.
