“We can enhance the hostility; that’s the next step in my opinion,” he responded. Expressing gratitude for the team’s achievements at home, Arteta emphasized the importance of creating a more intense atmosphere for upcoming matches, with Sunday’s game being a significant one.

Arteta urged the team to exhibit more bite, aggression, intimidation, and dominance, especially in certain games this season and Champions League fixtures, to elevate the atmosphere.

Following Liverpool’s visit, Arsenal’s upcoming schedule includes only three home games out of the next eight.

Crystal Palace is set to visit the Emirates on January 20, with Liverpool returning for Premier League action on February 4. After a series of away games, Arsenal will host Newcastle United on February 24.

If Arsenal progresses to the FA Cup fourth round, another home fixture could be added at the end of January.

“Can we tweak it and make it even more hostile? I think we can,” he replied. “That’s the next step in my opinion.

We have to be so grateful for what we’re achieving in our home ground. Sunday is going to be another big one.”I think the team has to give more.

It has to transmit that bite, that aggression, that intimidation and that dominance to the opponent. Certain games this season, and Champions League games, are going to create that next step.

That’s my feeling.”Following Liverpool’s visit on Sunday, Arsenal are currently only scheduled to play three of their next eight games at home.

They welcome Crystal Palace to the Emirates on January 20 before Liverpool return to north London in Premier League action on February 4. After a run of three successive away games, Arsenal host Newcastle United on February 24.

Should Arsenal progress to round four of the FA Cup, they could add another home date to their calendar on the final weekend of January.
