Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka was happy with the club's performance in Sunday's North London derby.

Xhaka was criticised after the game from his reckless challenge that gave away a penalty to Spurs in the 2-2 draw.

And the Swiss international says critics never want to speak about the positives from Sunday's North London derby.

"Of course critics are always here," he said. "The north London derby, I think we had a good game. I made a mistake with the penalty but if you saw the game, we could have won.

"We had a lot of chances but this is football. Nobody speaks about the chances, nobody speaks about how many we missed. They always speak about the mistakes.

"This is part of football."
