Arsenal midfielder, Granit Xhaka, has revealed that manager Unai Emery and his team-mates were in silence after their 4-1 defeat to Chelsea in the Europa League final on Wednesday evening.
The Gunners missed out on Champions League qualification after losing to their London rivals in Baku.
Chelsea went 3-0 up before Alex Iwobi scored an excellent goal to hand Arsenal a lifeline, but the Gunners’ hopes were extinguished as Eden Hazard scored his second of the game just three minutes later.
Xhaka has revealed the atmosphere inside their dressing room following the defeat.
“Him [Emery], the players, nobody speaks in the dressing room,” he told BT Sport.
Asked why Emery did not say anything, Xhaka said: “I don’t know. He was disappointed of course.
“I think we know how we played. We know we lost the game.
“It is not about shouting. It is not about shouting everything if we lose.
“You can say a lot now but it is not the time to explain why and what happens.
“I think it was a big chance for us and we didn’t take it.”
