Every word Mikel Arteta said on Rice's goal, Tomiyasu injury and dramatic late Arsenal win

Did you enjoy that?

What did you make of Raya’s performance?

We have to defend better the situations as a team. There are certain things leading to the goals. It’s not about blaming. We have never done it and we
