'Bring on Tottenham!' - Xhaka wants Arsenal to move on after latest Liverpool defeat

Arsenal midfielder Granit Xhaka says the Gunners need to move on and focus on the North London Derby after their chastening defeat at Liverpool on Saturday.

Xhaka came in for Reiss Nelson in Unai Emery’s starting XI, and the tactical shift seemed to be paying dividends as they threatened early on.

But, after a slight change of emphasis from Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp, the home side took control and eventually cantered to a comfortable 3-1 win.
