Newcastle 2 Arsenal 0: We don’t deserve to play Champions League, Europa – Xhaka

Arsenal midfielder, Granit Xhaka, has admitted that his team does not deserve to be in the Champions League.

His comment followed Arsena’s 2-0 defeat at Newcastle United on Monday night.

The Gunners saw their hopes of qualifying for next season’s Champions League take a huge dent.

Mikel Arteta’s men are now in fifth place, two points below rivals Tottenham Hotspur, ahead of the final round of fixtures.

Xhaka, speaking after the match, claimed his team mates didn’t obey instructions and didn’t deserve to play in Europe.

“We don’t deserve Champions League. We don’t deserve the Europa League.

“If you’re 18 or 35 and not ready (to play) just stay at home. Sorry to the fans,” he said.
