Following Arsenal's 4-0 aggregate defeat to Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup semi-final, manager Mikel Arteta emphasized the need for the team to "recharge" during their warm-weather training camp in Dubai. Arteta expressed disappointment over the team's lack of composure during the match, highlighting missed opportunities and the impact of Newcastle's high-intensity pressing game.
The Dubai training camp offers the squad an opportunity to recover both physically and mentally. Arteta has previously praised the benefits of such camps, noting that the change in environment, favorable weather conditions, and the chance to strengthen team cohesion can be invaluable.
As Arsenal prepares for the remainder of the Premier League season, the focus will be on utilizing this period to address recent challenges, recover from injuries, and reinforce team unity.
