Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta talked mind-bending statistics at today's presser for Tuesday night's Carabao Cup clash with Manchester City.
Defeats to Everton, Burnley, Wolves and Spurs have consigned Arsenal to their worst start to a campaign in 46 years, but Arteta insisted that his side have been deserving of more points by using statistics to back up his claim.
"Last year we won the game against Everton with a 25 per cent chance of winning, you win 3-2," he said.
"Last weekend, it was a 67 per cent chance of winning, any Premier League game in history, and a nine per cent chance of losing, and you lose.
"Three per cent against Burnley and you lose, seven per cent against Spurs and you lose. There is something else apart from that. It is not just the performance on the pitch, it is something else that needs to go our way and at the moment it doesn't.
"Saying that, it doesn't care because you lose and the only thing that cares is that you lose a football match and this is what we hear."
