Arsenal's defeat to Newcastle means the Gunners have only earned one point from their last three games.

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta expressed his frustration with the team's performance after losing to Newcastle.

A first-half goal from Alexander Isak proved to be the difference as Newcastle United defeated Arsenal 1-0 at St James' Park.

Arsenal failed to gain momentum throughout the match and despite dominating possession, they managed only one shot on target.

Arteta confirmed that he is very frustrated about the result that they were unable to provide answers to the questions.

"We didn't find enough answers to a lot of the questions and situations that you have to resolve better. So I'm very frustrated," Arteta told TNT Sports.

The Arsenal manager confirmed that he had planned to motivate his team for the next matches against Inter Milan and Chelsea.

"It's time to do it on the pitch. You know, we can say whatever we want. Probably we're not going to find the right words today because after losing a game, you are hurt. But we have to show it on the pitch on Wednesday night" he said.
