According to The Standard report, Arsenal are now “consulting with a third-party investigator that specialises identifying online abusers”, with the intention being to recognise those responsible for the abuse – which has been reported to Instagram – and “seek the strongest action possible against the culprits”.
Mikel Arteta on Havertz missing penalty against Manchester United in FA Cup
Arsenal coach Mikel Arteta has backed Havertz despite his penalty miss during FA Cup match against Manchester United. Speaking about the same he said, ‘To him and to all of them, that I love them, that we all love them individually and as a team they are a joy."
"What this team produces every three days is incredible regardless of what happens. And I’m not going to lose sight of that because of our results or for two because we didn’t deserve those results."
"What can we do better, let’s try to do it. It’s very difficult to achieve. It’s an emotional part. It’s something related to confidence as well. But it’s very difficult to ask something else from our players."
