Mikel Arteta has urged the Arsenal board to back him in the January transfer window after being held to a 2-2 draw by Aston Villa at the Emirates on Saturday.

Mikel Arteta says Arsenal are “very short” in attack and need reinforcements after they dropped more points in the title race by drawing with Aston Villa. The Gunners had been two goals to the good against Villa, but conceded twice in the space of eight second-half minutes to draw.

Arteta wasn't alone in his issues with the red card. Former Premier League referee Keith Hackett spoke out and criticised the decision shortly after Lewis-Skelly received his marching orders. He's emerged as an important figure in the Arsenal side this season and will be a big loss in some huge clashes if the ban isn't overturned.

VAR official Jared Gillett confirmed that the on-field decision would stand as the official agreed it satisfied the criteria for 'serious foul play'. But an incredulous Arteta refused to even dignify questions about the red card with an answer, only to let the media know that he was furious with the decision.
