Arteta wants two points instead of the VAR apology
VAR issued an apology for allowing Ivan Toney's equalizer for Brentford against Arsenal.
Although Arteta appreciates the gesture, he demands his team's lost points. Arteta said: "
That was not a human error. That was a big, big, big [case of] not understanding your job.
"That's not acceptable, I'm sorry. That cost Arsenal two points, and that's not going to be restored, so we're going to have to find those two points somewhere else in the league."
"I will be only satisfied if they give me the two points back, which is not going to be the case.
"I appreciate and think they were really genuine, sincere and open apologies and explanations, which is really good, but it doesn't change the fact we have two less points than we should have in the table."
On Arsenal's upcoming game against Man City on Wednesday, Arteta said:
"That's it. We have to move on. It's certainly made our players, our staff and our fans even stronger and with more desire. We are ready.
"We cannot do anything about it. Don't use it as an excuse. Try to move on and face it."
