Is it fair to say two of goals were gifted to Luton?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>But Arteta flatly deflected away from the response, before delivering a frosty response, saying: &#8216;I am so happy with the team.&#8217;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/05\/23\/78621381-12830073-image-a-9_1701819660580.jpg\" height=\"422\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Mikel Arteta has deflected questions over David Raya&#8217;s performance in Arsenal&#8217;s 4-3 win against Luton<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/12\/05\/23\/78617093-12830073-Raya_flapped_at_a_corner_allowing_Elijah_Adebayo_to_head_home_fr-a-12_1701819744033.jpg\" height=\"426\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Raya made two errors that allowed Luton to score, the first came as he flapped at a corner, allowing\u00a0Elijah Adebayo to head home from close range\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p>The reporter pressed again, asking: &#8216;Have you spoken to David Raya?&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>But the Gunners boss again, said: &#8216;I spoke with all of them. They are all jumping. They\u2019re so happy. So I\u2019m a really happy manager today.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Tonight was the first time Arsenal have conceded three goals away from home in the Premier League this season and the manager lumped praise on Luton for how they attacked Arsenal.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It happens credit to them as well,&#8217; he said on conceding three goals and of their opponents.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;Their delivery was excellent and their finishing was excellent and sometimes we just need to applaud the opponent because they did what they did and a big credit to them because they are a really difficult side to beat.

Horrible. Ross Barkley and Luton won\u2019t mind though. Neither will Rob Edwards.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;I thought he [Raya] Should have done better on the second goal, but he should definitely have done better on the third goal.<\/p>\n<p>&#8216;It is close to him but he\u2019s got to be saving that mate. Got to be saving that. Just thought it was great strength from Barkley.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The Gunners boss has previously rejected claims that Raya is struggling with the pressure to compete alongside Ramsdale, with the English shot-stopper now being monitored by rival clubs after he has fallen out of favour.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h3>IT&#8217;S ALL KICKING OFF!\u00a0<\/h3>\n<p><span>It&#8217;s All Kicking Off\u00a0is an exciting new podcast from Mail Sport that promises a different take on Premier League football, launching with a preview show today and every week this season.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>It is available on MailOnline, Mail+, YouTube , Apple Music and Spotify<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Your browser does not support iframes.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/08\/02\/636x90_facebook_ad_sport.png\" width=\"636\" height=\"90\"><br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12830073\/Mikel-Arteta-refuses-answer-questions-David-Rayas-clangers-frosty-post-match-interview-goalkeepers-errors-cost-Arsenal-two-goals-dramatic-4-3-win-against-Luton.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mikel Arteta refuses to answer questions on David Raya&#8217;s clangers in a frosty post-match interview after the goalkeeper&#8217;s errors cost Arsenal two goals during their dramatic 4-3 win against Luton The Arsenal goalkeeper was at fault for two of Luton&#8217;s goals on Tuesday night\u00a0 The Gunners had gone 2-1 up before David Raya had conceded [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":298464,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
