DBasia.news – Newer Arsenal defender David Luiz has not shown good performance for Unai Emery’s team.
After making a mistake in the match against Liverpool by awarding a penalty, he also has not been able to improve his performance when facing Tottenham Hotspur in a Premier League match. That, made Luiz and his colleagues in the defense sector get sharp criticism because it almost made the Gunners lose over his city rivals.
Fortunately, Emery’s squad failed to be defeated after being left behind 0-2. Because, two goals from Alexandre Lacazette and Pierre Emerick Aubameyang, making the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
Regarding the criticism he found, Luiz did not want to mess around and assumed that it was a natural thing.
“I think it’s natural, it’s always been like that throughout my career, especially when you are a defender. Attackers never lose a match, unless they fail to score from a penalty. This is what football is like,” Luiz said quoted from Express.
“Defenders must be responsible and respond humbly. I always try to do my best. I think my performance before the penalty kick at Liverpool was very good. Especially for my first appearance with Arsenal in a big game,” he concluded. Now, Emery seems to have to immediately start trying to improve the Gunners’ defense, because of the last two games the North London club has conceded five times.
