He said (via Metro):''I’m not a goalie but for me the keeper has to save that. He’s flat footed and he dives very, very late. Look at the three players who were in front of the ball when the shot goes in [Xhaka, Ben White, Rob Holding].''He added:''They all turn around to look at the goalie and they are not happy. They cannot believe he hasn’t saved it and for me that tells you everything. It’s still come a long way and it’s not come at pace, he’s [Xhaka] taken the power out of it, and you can see how they weren’t happy with him letting that goal in.''Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta surprised over Bukayo Saka's decision to take the penalty against ChelseaMikel Arteta has said that he was pleasantly surprised to see Bukayo Saka stepping up and taking the penalty against Chelsea in the EPL clash on Thursday.
