17:22 BST - Arsenal held almost four-fifths of uncontested possession throughout the match but could create only 2.21 expected goals from their 26 total shot attempts, 10 of which were blocked by a defiant Fleetwood back five - including three blocks each from centre backs Finley Potter and Conor Haughey.

Arteta demonstrated a sympathetic attitude towards his players after the game, praising their effort and application in spite of the final result.

"It really is a sad day for us. I cannot fault at all the attitude of the players," he told Sky Sports after the game.

"I haven't seen anybody not doing what is required at this level. We had so much of the ball, so many chances, so many shots."
