“It is very tough to find the reasons,” added Arteta. “I cannot say I have seen a change or this week that we have trained a different way.
I would be lying if I said that. But obviously there was something there today that Villa wanted much more than us, and they showed it.
“At the end of the day, if you are late in every decision you make, if you don’t win enough duels, if every second ball isn’t for us.
You don’t show the quality with the ball, you cannot defend your box, and when you get chances you don’t even hit the target.
It is a really complicated way to win football matches.”
