Gunners boss Mikel Arteta branded the Premier League officials as \u2018embarrassing\u2019 and a \u2018disgrace\u2019 after his side were controversially beaten\u00a0by Newcastle on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p>Arteta and his players felt that Anthony Gordon\u2019s match-winning goal should not have stood. VAR was unable to determine whether the ball had bounced out of play before Joe Willock delivered a cross for Joelinton to knock down, while Arsenal believed that the Brazilian pushed defender Gabriel.<\/p>\n<p>Newcastle midfielder Bruno Guimaraes otherwise escaped a red card when he seemed to elbow Jorginho. Arsenal&#8217;s Kai Havertz could also have been sent off in a feisty affair.<\/p>\n<p>But Arteta and Arsenal were left furious after the game, with the Spaniard embarking on an incredible rant during his media duties. The club then released a statement backing up their head coach and demanding that there be an urgent review into the standard of Premier League refereeing.<\/p>\n<p> <strong> READ MORE: <\/strong> <strong>Arsenal receive new Partey injury blow as Arteta faces Jesus dilemma[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Arsenal-Newcastle-Premier-League-5053090.jpg?r=1699344150951\"><\/p>\n<p>According to the Daily Mail, Arsenal believe that a \u2018pattern\u2019 of decisions have gone against them over the last couple of seasons. They are set to compile a list of key moments in which they believe referees have erred in the opposition\u2019s favour.<\/p>\n<p>One of those incidents is reported to be Mateo Kovacic escaping a red card during Arsenal\u2019s win over Manchester City on October 8. The list of decisions is set to be presented during a tense meeting with PGMOL chiefs.<\/p>\n<p>The report adds that Arsenal\u2019s reaction has not gone down well within the refereeing community. A source describes the Gunners as having been \u201cover the top\u201d in their criticism, while it is noticeable that the PGMOL has not responded publicly to the north Londoners.<\/p>\n<p>Arteta sensationally said he felt \u2018embarrassed\u2019 and \u2018ashamed\u2019 to be part of the Premier League having been in the country for nearly 20 years. He slammed the officiating as a \u2018disgrace\u2019, while Arsenal have called for refereeing standards to be improved.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Advert-free experience without interruptions.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Rocket-fast speedy loading pages.<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/g> <defs> <clipPath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"\/> <\/clipPath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Exclusive &#038; Unlimited access to all our content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> DON&#8217;T MISS&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Arsenal can ease Bukayo Saka fears by snapping up star &#8216;ready to say goodbye'[COMMENT] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Arsenal given extra reason to sign their own &#8216;Kane&#8217; as Nketiah pattern emerges[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Jamie Carragher urges Arsenal to &#8216;take a chance&#8217; on \u00a3100m-rated Ivan Toney[QUOTES] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/Mikel-Arteta-Arsenal-Newcastle-referees-5053096.jpg?r=1699344151135\"><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s embarrassing what happened.
