David Hytner was at the Emirates tonight, and here’s his report. Thanks for reading this MBM.

Mikel Arteta speaks to Amazon Prime, and is asked whether he saw a 4-0 win coming. “No … it was a really tough match … we knew when it was 0-0 it was going to be really tough … when it was 1-0 they opened up a little bit … make it easier for us to find the spaces … very happy … a big performance … we deserved the points … a big team performance without big individual performances is very difficult … I am very happy … delighted [for Viktor Gyökeres] because he fully deserves it … outstanding … his demands on himself are really high … we value a lot of what he does for the team … hopefully it is the start of a beautiful sequence … to have different ways of scoring goals is very important … belief is crucial in sport … we have to maintain momentum … we can improve.”
