<p>The Gunners faltered at City Ground last week as <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/arsenal-player-ratings-nottingham-forest-riccardo-calafiori/blt37cc8fbd379fdb82" target="_blank">Nottingham Forest held them to a goalless draw</a> in a crucial Premier League fixture. With them dropping two important points and <a href="https://www.goal.com/en/lists/liverpool-player-ratings-vs-newcastle-dominik-szoboszlai-alexis-mac-allister/blt645bf6cc9ba5d1b0" target="_blank">Liverpool beating Newcastle United 2-0</a>, Arsenal further drifted away from the top position, leaving them 13 points behind the Reds.</p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>With the north London side's hopes of winning the Premier League title slowly fading away, Arteta is now eyeing success in Europe as he claimed that his team has the resources to win the Champions League this year. Arsenal qualified for the round of 16 after finishing third in the league stage, having conceded just three goals in eight outings - the second lowest tally, after Inter.</p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Speaking to reporters in his pre-match press conference, the Spanish coach said: "We cannot change it, we have to learn from it and take that into the next game. There are a lot of things we have learned this season in the Champions League about ourselves. We have played very differently home and away the last year, especially in Europe.</p><p>"This year, we have been much more consistent. We have scored a lot of goals and not conceded almost anything. We have only conceded three goals and the lowest Expected Goals in the competition, which is great. That's a big platform."</p><p>He added: "We have those resources, that's what the team has already done. Now we have to continue to do it. When you look at the teams that have been very successful, the defensive record is critical. Then we have shown the capacity to score a lot of goals in the competition. Now the team is different, but this team still has a lot of resources to do that."</p>

WHAT MIKEL ARTETA SAID

<p>Arteta's men are all set to lock horns in the first leg of the round of 16 fixture in Netherlands on Tuesday before facing rivals Manchester United in the Premier League next Sunday.</p>
