The Gunners were held to a 2-2 draw at the Emirates on Sunday with two goals from Spurs star Son Heung-min.<\/p>\n
But Mikel Arteta\u2019s side were arguably lucky to have 11 players on the pitch when Nketiah put in a nasty challenge on Tottenham goalkeeper Vicario.<\/p>\n
\u2018I think it was one where it is fortunate, simply because the ball is gone,\u2019 Wright told Match of the Day.<\/p>\n
\u2018He was totally committed. I don\u2019t know if it was frustration, because of how the game was going for him.<\/p>\n
\u2018He had one shot on target today. I don\u2019t know if it is frustration. When you look at the ball, he was very fortunate to stay on. He got away with one there.\u2019<\/p>\n
Wright also highlighted Arsenal\u2019s goalscoring problems and has urged his former side to be more clinical if they are to have any hope of landing the Premier League trophy.<\/p>\n
\u2018If you are going to chase down Man City, the chances you are creating, you have to take them,\u2019 Wright added.<\/p>\n
\u2018We\u2019re talking about margins and 2-0 makes it a different game. We\u2019d have seen a different kind of Spurs.\u2019<\/p>\n
Arsenal return to action on Wednesday when they travel to face Brentford in the Carabao Cup.<\/p>\n
