Shkodran Mustafi sends out a message after playing in Olympiacos game
Arsenal defender Shkodran Mustafi sent out a message after featuring in the Gunners’ clash with Olympiacos in the Europa League on Thursday night.
Mikel Arteta had every reason to believe his side would get the job done on Thursday after their form over the last three games in all competitions.
The Arsenal boss retained Shkodran Mustafi in his starting eleven following the German star’s resurgent form ever since his blunder away at Chelsea.
After conceding a goal in the second half, the game went to extra time with Mustafi playing no part in that stage of the match due to a fitness blow which forced him to be replaced by Sokratis.
The former Valencia star could only watch on from the dug out as his teammates failed to defend the advantage given to them by a sublime Aubameyang goal.
After the full-time whistle, Mustafi took to social media as he called on everyone to ‘stick together’.
It’s a hard one to take for everybody but in difficult moments we have to stick together. Always greatful for your support 🙏🏼 🔴⚪ #SM20 pic.twitter.com/DNFdyxGXkb
