Mikel Arteta chose to start his newest recruit on the bench for the trip to Everton, but Jorginho was eventually introduced just before the hour mark.
Gunners fans would have been keen to see how the Italian fared in what was such a physical contest in the middle of the pitch at Goodison Park. The likes of Amadou Onana, Idrissa Gueye and Abdoulaye Doucoure were causing both of Thomas Partey and Granit Xhaka huge headaches.
It is for that reason Arteta opted to replace Partey with Jorginho, though the former Chelsea man hardly got off to a dream start. Less than one minute after he was brought on, Arsenal were behind after conceding from a corner.
