EPL: Tottenham manager explains why they lost 3-1 to Arsenal

Tottenham manager, Nuno Espirito Santo, has taken full responsibility for their 3-1 loss to Arsenal on Sunday.

The Gunners raced to a three-goal lead in the first half thanks to goals from Emile Smith Rowe, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Bukayo Saka.

Spurs could only manage a consolation goal in the 79th minute.

Nuno had picked Dele Alli and Tanguy Ndombele in his starting XI, but both midfielders were taken off at half-time.

"I decided bad. Didn't make the right decisions. And I refuse to go much further than that. It's my responsibility. All I have to say, I'll say it to the players among us. Because [we] must solve the problem.

"I have a message [for the fans]. A message that we are disappointed because today was a special game for all of us, for our fans, and we didn't achieve the standards that our fans deserve.

"So my message is I promise we'll try to fix it. The only message we can say by words. After that it's work. What I expect, what I want is a totally different game in the next one," Nuno said.
