Welbeck says Arsenal "devastated" for derby defeat

Danny Welbeck says Arsenal are "devastated" after losing the derby to Tottenham

Arsenal blew a 1-0 lead to lose 2-1.

"The boys are devastated to lose the game and it's not nice for us to come here and lose the derby," Welbeck said. "It's a massive game for the whole club, the fans and it's something that we're really disappointed about.

"We came here with good confidence and we thought that we could get the three points today. We went ahead, started well and then tailed off towards the end.

"As a team, going forward we didn't do as well as we could have done and they took advantage of that. It was really disappointing and on a personal level it was difficult for me to get back in the swing of things after being out for a few weeks."
