Everton 0-0 Arsenal: A drab draw ensues as Arteta watches from the stands [Tweets]

Everton and Arsenal played out a drab goalless draw at Goodison Park on Saturday, as new managers Carlo Ancelotti and Mikel Arteta watched from the stands.

In what was Freddie Ljungberg’s last match in-charge as Arsenal’s caretaker manager, the Gunners produced a listless performance. Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford had just one notable save to make, stopping Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang’s half volley with a superb reflex save.

In the end, however, neither side had any sort of quality to grab all three points at the culmination of 90 minutes. Despite the insipid performance, though, Arsenal fans were thankful to Ljungberg, expressing their gratitude on social media.

Mikel Arteta has an uphill task ahead of him as Arsenal’s new manager and fans and rivals alike recognised the same in their post-match thoughts with some healthy trolls.

But, there were a few offering balanced views as well.
