      It’s pulled out of the middle of a sentence and suggests a different context to what was actually said.

      So instead of “we’re professionals and support each other even though it hurts that I’m not starting” which is what he’s said. It reads as “I’m hurting” which is ambiguous and suggestive that there is a bigger problem there.

      I hate click bait titles too. Especially, like in this instance, there is no need. What he actually said is incredible interesting to us.

      Let’s say after a close game which we won, Arteta said “it was a tough situation but we got the win, so I am happy”, then loads of news sites posted a headline saying “ARSENAL IN TOUGH SITUATION, SAYS ARTETA”.

      Yes, those are the words he used, but does that sound like his intent in the comment?
