London's "Arsenal" suffered a very painful defeat at home in the "Premier League" match on Sunday, losing 0:3 to the "Aston Villa" team. After the match, "Gunners" coach Mikel Arteta did not hide his disappointment with his team's performance, but took full responsibility for the loss. "First of all, I want to congratulate 'Aston Villa', who knew how they wanted to play and achieved victory. However, I must say that we played well below our capabilities. I can say that I have never seen such poor performance from my team before. I take full responsibility for the loss. Since the beginning of the match, we did not play well and we were somewhat lucky that the opponent's first goal was not counted. We lost all the battles in strength and speed. It is my responsibility to ensure that the players function properly on the field. Today we were not a team, and I am guilty of that," M. Arteta said after the match.
