Mikel Arteta - the man Arsenal fans chant about knowing exactly what the team needs, and he's been exactly that so far this season. Whether it's finding a solution to falling behind against Fulham or working out how to bounce back in the North London Derby, the Spaniard appears to have had - almost - all the answers.
This was very much the case again on Sunday as the Gunners recorded another statement win with victory over Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium. Perhaps it's too early to claim it as a changing of the guard at the top end of the table, but a young and resilient side battled on after being pegged back twice by the experienced team that had been there and won it themselves.
One of the key battles may well have been won before a ball had even been kicked, with a key decision from Arteta. That was the choice to start Takehiro Tomiyasu at left-back, despite outcry from supporters to play Kieran Tierney there instead.
