Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta insists he had no problem with Granit Xhaka's blunder for Burnley's equaliser in yesterday's 1-1 draw.

The equaliser was a comedy goal, with 6ft 3in Chris Wood standing beside Xhaka as he tried to lift the ball out of the area and instead sent it into the net off the striker. But Arteta was unmoved.

"It is what it is," he said. "It's the way we play. It's the way I want to play and we just have to know the risk and the rules we have in certain areas and the type of balls that we have to play.

"We are talking about [errors] all the time and trying to nullify everything we give to the opponent. If someone makes a mistake because they want to play, I will always support them. If someone is hiding I will not have that.

"We scored a goal [today] from Auba (Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang) that started all the way from Bernd Leno and we conceded one chance - and that chance came from Bernd kicking the ball long and we could not control the second ball."
