Arsenal captain Granit Xhaka says the Gunners “were too scared” as they let slip a two-goal lead to draw 2-2 at Watford.
Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang scored twice in the first half for the visitors but the Hornets hit back after the break through Tom Cleverley and a late Roberto Pereyra penalty.
Watford finished with 31 shots on goal, 23 of those coming in the second half.
“No-one wanted the ball. In the end we are happy to take a point,” Xhaka said.
“We didn’t show our game in the second half, we were too scared.”
Xhaka added: “Every team in the Premier League is strong enough to score but you have to keep calm, to show good character, to be mentally strong. We weren’t today.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
