[ad_1] Mikel Arteta has challenged Arsenal to reset following their 2-0 defeat to PSV which he admitted was “worrying.” Arteta’s side had the chance to secure top spot in their Europa League group in Eindhoven but never really looked like doing so. They struggled to cope with Cody Gakpo and Xavi Simons in the first half, with both having goals ruled out for being marginally offside.

[ad_1] Arsenal are firmly in control of their Champions League group as a Lina Hurtig brace saw the Gunners to a 3-1 victory over Zurich at the Emirates on Thursday evening.
