Mikel Arteta believes Liverpool have “set the standards” for the Premier League after watching his Arsenal team sweep at Anfield.

The reds came from behind to W.At 3-1 on Monday To continue to start their title defense 100%.

Arsenal defeated Juergen Klopp’s side near the end of last season and defeated them on penalties in the Community Shield last month.

But Arteta admits it Liverpool They remain major-bearers in England and explain what distinguishes them.

“We are on a different journey for them,” said the Arsenal coach. “They have been together for five years.

“They weren’t able to do what they did tonight two or three years ago, that’s for sure.

They did a lot of good work. They have a lot of faith in the way they play, they have got great recruiting and have improved the players they have.

“This is what we have to try to do. They set the standards, perhaps the best standard we’ve seen in many years. We still have a long way to go.”

Arteta was left to regret a chance in the second half when Alison Baker was deprived of Lacazette when he managed to win.

He said, “It’s clearly a really difficult place to come.” “They are a really good team. We stayed in the match almost the whole match.

“Having the lead I think we should have dealt with it a little bit better, we came in very early. We competed throughout the match and we knew we were going to have tough moments at Anfield but with the belief that we could get something out of the game.

“When we had the clear chances to make it 2-2, we didn’t score. If you want something from here, you have to take advantage of these opportunities.”
