Arsenal are struggling again for Champions League qualification this season.
The Saints beat Arsenal 1-0 with Jan Bednarek’s goal in the first half enough to seal the win for the home side.
On the other hand, Manchester United 3-2 against Norwich City putting them ahead of Arsenal in the league table on level points.
Arsenal’s injury concerns have worsened in the latter part of the season with key players Thomas Partey and Kieran Tierney out for the season.
Mikel Arteta believes his side needs to find a way to win the next crucial fixtures.
Arteta said: “If you’re somebody that didn’t know the score and is watching the game and asked who won the game, they would have said that Arsenal won it comfortably, but that is not the case.
“It’s difficult to explain considering that to lose a football match in this league. We conceded a sloppy goal and for the amount of possession, and it wasn’t just possession, it was the threat, we played very close to the opponent’s half, it wasn’t possession in our own backline, we should have scored three or four.
“It’s as simple as that, when you’re there that much, you have to score goals.”
