So many players of the match in this game. Although I feel Arteta was the chief architect of this important vicory and should be POTM. This was a controlled victory with great care to not allow any early goal scoring by the opposition. Haaland was there and he achived nothing, Saliba had him in his pocket.The Crowd celebrated with the Club Anthem and streamed out singing 1-0 to the Arsenal so good to hear the old favourites.
