How do you get from

Arteta said that he had not seen the latest incidents, but added that his players would know his opinion. “There’s nothing that I want to discuss about that, [it’s] down to the players, but they know my view on it,” he said. “We have to focus on us and leave anything that happens … it’s part of the game on the pitch. We’ve been in football a long time — just leave it, there’s nothing there to do.”

Don't taunt them

Arteta knows that those taunts and those feelings that were shared by players and fans alike are what gave our stadium the best atmosphere we've had all season. Why would he try and undermine not only that, but also publicly shit on an 18 year old celebrating his first goal.

Ask Gary Jacob if he felt the same when Rooney celebrated his first goal.
