Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta admitted frustration after their 2-2 draw with Tottenham.

Arsenal were twice pegged back by Spurs in an exciting end-to-end clash.

However, Arteta insists they did enough to have put away the visitors: "We're disappointed not to win the game, especially when you go ahead twice.

"It's a shame that we didn't win it. When we scored again and then conceded straight away it affected the team emotionally.

"I think they are a really good side. They've got a really good coach. You can see the spirit in the team and the energy around them, but six games is too early [to make a judgement on what they will be fighting for at the end of the season]."

On Jorginho's error for Heung-min Son's second, he added: "What happened is I love him and we love him. Errors are part of football. They're allowed to make errors because they are players."

On Declan Rice's halftime change, Arteta conceded: "It's strange that a player like him has to come off. So we'll see."
