During Arsenal's recent Champions League match against Inter, the team's manager Mikel Arteta found himself in hot water. After a controversial penalty was awarded to Inter for a handball by Mikel Merino, the Gunners were unable to secure a draw and suffered yet another defeat. Despite dominating possession in the second half, Arsenal failed to create any clear scoring opportunities, much to the frustration of their manager.
In the midst of his frustration, Arteta made a mistake that landed him a yellow card. In an attempt to help his team take a quick throw-in, he left his technical area and retrieved the ball from the pitch. However, the ball had not fully gone out of play, which angered Inter's full-back Matteo Darmian. This is not the first time Arteta's touchline behavior has caused controversy, and fans are calling for officials to take action.
One fan on social media expressed their frustration, saying, "Absolutely a red card. One of my biggest gripes is Arteta's touchline antics. He needs to be reprimanded more harshly." Another fan suggested an unconventional solution, saying, "They need to put a shock collar on him. If he steps out of the technical area, it'll shock him." And yet another fan was surprised that Arteta only received a yellow card, saying, "How is that not a red card? A manager entering the field of play and picking up the ball should be an automatic red."
Despite the defeat, Arteta remains optimistic and is focusing on the upcoming match against Chelsea. He believes that if his team continues to play the way they did against Inter, they have a good chance of winning. "I'm proud of my team. I haven't seen them play like this in Europe before. We may be disappointed with the result, but we will continue to move forward and improve," he said.
Fans can expect more intense matches and potential controversy as Arsenal continues their season. As for Arteta, he will have to learn from his mistake and make sure his emotions don't get the best of him in future matches.
