Arsenal are hurting – Mikel Arteta

TEAMtalk :    Arsenal midfielder Mikel Arteta has assured the club’s supporters that the players are “hurting” and determined to turn their poor form around.

The Gunners host West Brom on Saturday lying in 10th place in the Premier League following last weekend’s 2-0 defeat by Swansea at the Emirates Stadium.

The situation, not helped by another loss to Olympiacos in midweek, has led to huge frustration among Arsenal fans – and Arteta says the players feel it just as keenly.
