Watch as Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta slammed referee Paul Tierney after Tottenham beat 10-man Arsenal 3-0 on Thursday, while Antonio Conte suggest Arteta complains too much.
Harry Kane tormented Arsenal once again as the Tottenham striker opened the scoring with a controversial penalty. Then Arsenal’s Rob Holding was sent off for two bookings in seven minutes before Kane netted again to put Spurs in control.
Son Heung-min bagged Tottenham’s third goal in the second half to seal the victory.
Gunners boss Arteta was furious with both the penalty and red card, saying: “If I say what I think I’m suspended for six months. I don’t know how to lie so I prefer not to say what I think.
“I cannot give my opinion. I think you can read my body language very clearly. I’m not unhappy with my players. I’m proud of my players.
“I want the referees to come in front of the camera and explain his decisions. It’s a shame because such a beautiful game was destroyed today.”

Conte, however, was please with the win but has quickly switched his focus.
“We won an important derby and now we are close to them in the table. For sure, we need to recover very well because we will play on Sunday against a team that has beaten us,” he said.
“I was very clear with my players, to enjoy and celebrate in the right way but at the same time think about Sunday as otherwise this win will not be important.”
