Half time report:
Well, that half of football was a weird one. Everton have had half moments in which they have looked semi-dangerousbut nothing concrete has come from their periods of ‘dominance’ that might make you feel as though they deserve to be in the lead.
Arsenal have controlled most of the ball and probed the opposition box the most. Having said that, until the goals came, nothing clear was being created and it took a moment of class from Saka to light up the Emirates Stadium and kill the nerves that may have been creeping in.
Once they did that, the game was completely different: Arsenal’s confidence levels grew 500 sizes and they loomed over Everton, dominating them like an Orc crushing a baby mouse.
Everton need to steady the ship and regroup during the breakor else the Arsenal Orcs are going to keep on crushing.
