Mikel Arteta has urged Arsenal players to accept the 'noise' and pressure of the Premier League title race, rejecting claims the team is 'bottling' after a draw with Wolves. The Gunners, who have finished runners-up for three consecutive seasons, face Tottenham in a crucial match, with Arteta insisting the team must focus on winning each game. 'You ask them the question: Do you want to be part of the noise? Or not?

If not go and do something else,' Arteta said, emphasizing the need for resilience. The team has won just two of their last seven league games, with injuries to key players like Martin Ødegaard, who has played only 45 minutes in five matches, complicating their title bid.
