London's "Arsenal" club has only achieved two victories in the first eight "Premier" league matches this season. Team coach Arsene Wenger admitted to journalists that he is not satisfied with the team's form, especially the defense.
On Saturday, in a match against "Hull City" at home, "Arsenal" saved themselves only in the last minutes, when Danny Welbeck extended the draw to 2:2.
The first goal in our goal was scored by the referee, the second - by our own mistake. We made mistakes and put ourselves in a bad position, but we played with all our hearts until the end of the match.
A very disappointing result - we controlled the ball 80 percent of the time, but only managed to secure one point. We cannot afford to concede goals in our own net," disappointedly said A. Wenger after the match.
Meanwhile, "Chelsea" easily defeated "Crystal Palace" 2:1 on Saturday and remained the league leaders. "Arsenal" is now 11 points behind the "Blues."
"Of course, it is very upsetting. Other teams are winning, but we are not managing to do so. Sometimes, even when we have initiative, we lose - we can only blame ourselves," said A. Wenger.
However, the Frenchman had some good news - Jack Wilshere, who did not finish the match with "Hull City" due to injury, will be able to play in the UEFA Champions League match against Brussels' "Anderlecht" on Wednesday.
