Arteta's Arsenal receives the first criticisms: “They will be eaten alive”

Mikel Arteta's Arsenal the season has started quite well. In fact, this week they eliminated Liverpool from the League Cup. Of course, it was on penalties after a 0-0. However, the Spanish style of play does not seem to convince everyone. Paul merson, a former English footballer who played for the Gunners for several seasons, considers that if they continue playing like this big teams will 'tear them apart'.

“If they lose, it's like going to the Woburn Zoo next week (playing Manchester City) and Enter the lion's cage with a truck loaded with steaks. They're going to eat you alive, right? “, he assures.

And he adds: “They are playing like this in Liverpool, they are the best in the business. If they are to continue like this, there is only one result “.

On the other hand, Merson acknowledged that at Arsenal he sees “some improvement” and recognizes the difficulty of the match against Klopp's: “They played against the best team in the country and the second best in Europe after Bayern “.
