Arteta: The word 'bottlers' is not in my vocabulary

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has dismissed suggestions that his side are “bottlers” as the Premier League title race intensifies. Asked directly whether the label is fair, Arteta replied that the word itself does not exist in his personal lexicon. The Spaniard’s blunt rebuttal comes amid mounting scrutiny of the Gunners’ staying power in the championship fight, yet he offered no further elaboration on form, fixtures or past results, keeping his focus squarely on the contest ahead.
