Still a big gap between Arsenal and Liverpool - Arteta

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta believes there is still a big gap between his side and reigning Premier League champions Liverpool.

Arteta's side scraped to a Carabao Cup win over the Reds on Thursday night with the match ending 0-0 before goalkeeper Bernd Leno proved decisive for the Gunners in a penalty shootout.

Arsenal have now won three out of four games played against Liverpool since Arteta took charge at the Emirates - with two of those victories confirmed via spot-kicks.

The Reds did, however, beat the Gunners 3-1 in the Premier League last month and accrued 43 more points in the league last season.
