Mikel Arteta has been speaking ahead of Arsenal's Premier League clash against Everton on Wednesday night, but first, he had to clear up the situation involving William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes.
Following the Gunners' 1-0 win over Leicester City at the weekend, the central defensive pair appeared to clash at the final whistle with The Athletic's James McNicholas noting that "a few angry words exchanged between Saliba and Gabriel at full-time. Frenchman appeared to push his partner away. Some sort of disagreement. Sure it'll blow over."
However, replays have since shown that both Saliba and Gabriel were smiling during this particular exchange which suggests any sort of disagreement was a minor one and Arteta's response with regard to what happened between his first-choice defensive pairing was telling.
