MIKEL ARTETA\u2019S rant was "unnecessary" and risked damaging Arsenal\u2019s image.<\/p>\n
Ex-Gunners vice-chairman David Dein insists the Spaniard calling decisions "embarrassing" and "a disgrace" would not have happened during his reign.<\/p>\n
\n<\/p>\n
He claims boss Arteta\u2019s tirade over Newcastle\u2019s controversial winner earlier this month was to distract from a poor performance.<\/p>\n
Asked how he would have handled the situation, Dein, 80, said: "It would not have happened.<\/p>\n
"It did not do the image of the club any good. But it\u2019s an emotional game."<\/p>\n
On talkSPORT\u2019s Sunday Edition, Dein, who oversaw five title triumphs during his time at Arsenal between 1983 and 2007, added: "He felt aggrieved \u2014 but it was a bit of misdirection.<\/p>\n
"Arsenal only had one shot at goal so you can\u2019t say they deserved to win."<\/p>\n Arteta was heavily criticised for his comments following Arsenal's 1-0 defeat at St James' Park.<\/p>\n He said: "I have praised my players for the performance and the way that we played – we didn\u2019t deserve to lose the match.<\/p>\n "We lost the match because of the clear and obvious decisions.<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n FREE BETS – BEST BETTING OFFERS AND BONUSES NEW CUSTOMERS<\/strong><\/p>\n "It\u2019s embarrassing. It\u2019s a disgrace. That\u2019s what it is, a disgrace."<\/p>\n Following the match, the Premier League's Key Match Incident Panel supported the decision to allow Anthony Gordon's goal to stand.<\/p>\n However, they also claimed both Kai Havertz and Bruno Guimaraes should have received red cards.<\/p>\n ARSENAL NEWS LIVE: <\/strong>KEEP UP TO DATE WITH ALL THE ONGOINGS FROM THE EMIRATES<\/p>\n<\/picture>DU A DEAL <\/span><\/p>\n
