Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta expressed frustration despite his team securing a Champions League victory, according to Yahoo Sports. The Gunners defeated Slavia Prague 2-1 but Arteta was unhappy with how sloppy his side looked after the break.

According to the report, Arsenal appeared to fade physically and mentally following halftime, eventually conceding a late goal that took some shine off the result. Despite picking up the three points, Arteta made clear the performance fell short of his standards.

The win keeps Arsenal moving forward in Champions League play, though Arteta's comments signal he expects sharper execution from his squad in matches ahead.
