4-0. you heard it here first.

Tony approves your post, I took the pic after your prediction.

Well that was enjoyable other than their #8 feigning head injuries within 13 seconds and repeating pretty much every-time he lost the ball and we were counter attacking, plus standard Prickford time wasting

As others have posted having Partey back in the second half was like the whole midfield and defence relax as he was like a one man wall, his reading of the game as DM is unrivalled in our squad and his understanding of what our platters are doing mean his distribution is excellent too.

Some nice finishing for the goals, shame Eddie couldn’t nick one but his runs were good and even if not passed to was helping break up their formation.

Same level of second half performance against Bournemouth on Saturday would be nice…

From BBC
Arsenal have now won 100 league games against Everton, the first team to reach that milestone against an opponent in English history.

Both Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli scored their 10th Premier League goals of the season, making Arsenal the only side with two players on double figures so far this campaign

And hopefully three before the end of the season with Jesus due back soon.

From Arse.con
Arteta has admitted that Jorginho will be OK to play after struggling with illness during the win against Everton in midweek.

Eddie Nketiah also limped off at the end of that game with a knock although Arteta played down concerns it was too serious, while Gabriel Jesus and Mohamed Elneny remain out

Officials
Chris Kavanagh will take charge of one of our games for just the second time this campaign, with his last coming at Leeds United where we won 1-0 in November. We have won eight and drawn two of the 15 matches he has officiated.

This is just his sixth Premier League appointment this season and he is yet to take charge of a Bournemouth game, but he was the man in the middle for our 5-1 home success against the Cherries back in February 2019.

Referee: Chris Kavanagh
Assistant Referee 1: Neil Davies
Assistant Referee 2: Constantine Hatzidakis
Fourth Official: Andre Marriner
VAR: John Brooks
Assistant VAR: Mark Scholes

I follow Bournemouth as much as Arsenal, them being my local team and I really don’t want them to go down this year, but we really need to batter them tomorrow. Might get our goal difference back on a par with City…

Eddie has done a great job whilst Jesus recovers but it was inevitable Eddie would pick up a knock or two eventually . what's the backup plan?

Trossard or Martinelli up front I’d assume

9.11 seconds. 2nd fastest goal in PL history.

Surely it’s only a matter of time before the equaliser 😳

Not playing like that we wont. We must have had close to 90% possesion and done nothing with it, we had god knows how many corners and not one did we get a head on. Can see Xhaka coming on at this rate.

I’d even have Oli Giroud back right now.

Can’t help but feel we’ve really suffered from not having a decent number 9

If we lose this, 6 points dropped to bottom of the table sides is not championship wining calibre.
