“You can see how Liverpool build their squad and there’s no magic, you need to improve the squad with quality players,” manager Mikel Arteta told Sky Sports

“And we need a bigger squad to compete in this competition. That’s the challenge.”

“It’s a massive job. You only have to look at the difference between the two teams – it’s enormous.”

Mikel Arteta, who replaced Unai Emery in December, said that while quality was an issue, Arsenal were a match for Liverpool in other areas.

“The gap in many areas we can’t improve in two months but the gap between accountability, energy, commitment, and fight between the teams is now equal,” manager Mikel Arteta added.

Arsenal takes on Manchester City in the FA Cup semi-finals on Saturday.
