Mikel Arteta has said he wants the pain of performing a guard of honour for Liverpool to act as Arsenal’s motivation to beat their rivals to the Premier League title next season.

Arteta’s players will stand and applaud the champions ahead of Sunday’s fixture at Anfield, only four days after they were eliminated from the Champions League.
