Mikel Arteta admits he feels 'deep pain' at missing out on reaching the EuropaLeague final but insists he is the right man to take Arsenal forward after a dismal season IOLsport UEL

The exit leaves the Gunners, ninth in the Premier League, on the cusp of facing a first season without European football in 25 years - and their fifth consecutive campaign outside the Champions League - as pressure grows on Arteta.

"I felt that responsibility and I was so eager to achieve that because I knew it could be a defining moment. Not being able to achieve it has been really tough personally, obviously. "I know that we have disappointed a lot of people as well and that really hurts because we want to give the best to everybody but one thing I made clear is that to do what we want to do, I have no doubts that we are going to achieve it. If not, I wouldn't be sat here."Arteta, a former Arsenal player, said he understood the frustration of the fans, admitting their long absence from the Champions League was a"trend".
