Gabriel Martinelli scored twice and Bukayo Saka and Martin Ødegaard once each as Arsenal thrashed Everton 4-0 at the Emirates.
Everton’s woes in front of goal have been well documented and it was remarkable to think that their leading scorers in the league at kick-off time had just three goals apiece. With Thomas Partey on for Jorginho, who felt unwell, providing presence in front of the back four, it was never in doubt. Dwight McNeil did wriggle clear to work Ramsdale with a low shot on 62 minutes but Arsenal were the likelier scorers of the next goal. Saka took a touch, spun in on goal and, although the angle was tight, he knew that Pickford’s near, top corner offered the route to gold. It was not an Arsenal thing, he said; he was worried about the game in general. Dyche was all action in the technical area while the game was level, cajoling and demanding, even if his players were acutely aware of what he wanted; what he always wants. It has appeared that way for a number of weeks, although there was the small wobble after the Goodison defeat when they The space was there for Oleksandr Zinchenko to ping a pass and he did so. He drifted inside from the right, away from Vitaliy Mykolenko, and Michael Keane, who Dyche had preferred to Conor Coady, did not step across. But it is difficult to escape the feeling that a first title since 2004 is theirs to lose. Arsenal were patient when they had to be and then clinical, the moment that in effect ended the contest just before half-time being one to keep Dyche awake at night. The Evertonians who had stuck around ought to have rubbed their eyes in disbelief.

Tarkowski saw the games first yellow card for bringing down Odegaard, and Holgate went in strongly on Xhaka as the Blues looked to rattle the home side in a stop-start opening to the second half. Arsenal withdrew Trossard and Xhaka for Nketiah and Vieira for the restart, as the worry now was whether Arsenal would do further damage to the Blues worrying goal difference. Martinelli saw a shot deflected behind for another Arsenal corner that Tarkowski headed clear and we hit the 70-minute mark with the Blues still trying to find a way forward to pressure the home goal. Saka with a poor challenge on Mykolenko escaped a yellow card before Onana again went down claiming an elbow from Gabriel as the Blues countered, the home crowd and Gabriel not happy with the big Belgian who reacted in kind back to them. It was a fine finish but, tough on the Blues who to this point had been defending and competing manfully. Mykolenko up in support got away from Saka to cross low into the box where Saliba cleared hastily, the Blues keeping some good possession with McNeil and Mykolenko pushing forward and forcing Arsenal back. Through the quarter hour mark, Everton were competing effectively, closing down and looking to break forward whenever they had the chance to whilst remaining mindful of the pace in the Arsenal side. Arsenal won the first corner on four minutes as Saka stumbled and the ball ricocheted behind off Mykolenko, the set piece seeing a shot from Jorginho go high and wide. At the end of the day, you can still have good away records by structuring the team and by suggesting the team maybe have to work in different ways, but most of all the mentality is important.” Offering further insight into his preparation, he added, “We have to look at certain matches, what they do and try to get the right tactics to beat them – and as well the same mentality and expectation of what we demand in the game. What we have to do is tomorrow in front of our crowd go full tilt, go to win the game, play well and compete really well against this team.” We showed the players what they do, what they are about, what we expect to do to try to beat them and nothing different.

Remember everyone, keep the faith, get behind the team and the manager, as this season is going to be crucial for our future success in all competitions. Although the first half was patchy at times, our second half performance was exemplary, and was a fine example of how great we can be when all cylinders are firing, which tonight was certainly the case. We composed ourselves and reimposed ourselves on the opposition, and during injury time Bukayo Saka took the ball off Idrissa Gueye, passed the ball through to Gabriel Martinelli, who ran on to it and drove it home to make it two nil to us at the break. The second half started with Thomas Partey replacing Jorginho, and we started the game in the same spirit as we finished the first. Eddie Nketiah and Fabio Vieira replaced Leandro Trossard and Granit Xhaka with about fifteen minutes of the game remaining. We recovered and won two corners in succession, which although went nowhere, the important thing is that we are bringing the game to the opposition.

ARSENAL 2-0 EVERTON (GABRIEL MARTINELLI): Gueye is caught in possession by Saka which allows Martinelli to run through and stick the ball in the back of the net. The Arsenal fans were getting edgy and there were a couple of indicators that the pressure was getting to the players. And for 40 minutes of the first half, Everton’s gameplan appeared to be working to a tee once more: sit back in great numbers, frustrate and play on the counter-attack. After all, this is a side that inflicted just a second loss of the season on Arsenal just a month ago. However, following a quick VAR check, the goal was given, and Arsenal had a healthy lead at the break. Bukayo Saka broke the deadlock five minutes before half-time with his 10th goal of the season before Martinelli added a second in stoppage-time.
