Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta on whether criticism of the club’s set-piece tactics is because everyone is trying to play catch-up: “I don’t know. As an opponent you get upset when you concede a goal. I was really upset by the way we conceded the goal against Chelsea and Chelsea looked really good with the quality they have, look at the amount of set-pieces they score. Manchester United, the same.<\/p>\n

“When I was at Manchester City we used to work a lot on them, so it’s something.<\/p>\n

“There are phases when one team has an opportunity to do certain things. The game is evolving and becoming more and more difficult. <\/p>\n

“Before, when you used to do a game plan and you would invert a full-back or bring an extra player into midfield or a false nine, 4v3 inside, 2v1 inside, everyone behind the ball. <\/p>\n

“Teams are adapting, teams know after every sequence of play, whether it is a throw-in, a restart of play, an open-pitch situation, after that they know exactly what they have to do and everything is almost man to man.<\/p>\n

“So it is not going to be a different game, unless we change the rules, because the evolution of the game is that.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"‘Teams are adapting, teams know exactly what they’ve to do’published at 14:53 GMT 14:53 GMT Brighton v Arsenal…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":501416,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[403,99],"class_list":["post-501415","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-soccer","tag-soccer","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/501415","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=501415"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/501415\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/501416"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=501415"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=501415"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=501415"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
