Arsenal once again struggled to find the back of the net during their recent match against Everton, resulting in a scoreless draw. This disappointing outcome was met with criticism from Piers Morgan, who did not hold back in his assessment of the team's performance. Despite having the opportunity to gain ground on the league table, the Gunners were unable to secure a win against an opponent they were expected to dominate.
Despite a lack of attacking threat from Everton, Arsenal was unable to break through their stubborn defense. Goalkeeper Jordan Pickford made some impressive saves, but it was clear that the Gunners were running out of steam as the game progressed. In an attempt to turn things around, manager Mikel Arteta made some substitutions, including taking off captain Martin Odegaard and record signing Declan Rice. However, these changes did not have the desired impact.
The substitutes, including Ethan Nwaneri, Gabriel Jesus, and Leandro Trossard, were unable to make a significant difference on the field. The pressure was on for players like Kai Havertz, who ended up playing in midfield, but even he was only able to score one goal in his last eight Premier League games. Morgan was quick to point out the team's lack of a proper striker, a sore spot that seems to become more apparent with each passing game.
Arteta shared his disappointment with the outcome, acknowledging that Arsenal had multiple chances to score but were unable to convert. He praised the team's defensive efforts, as they did not allow any shots on goal or concede any set-pieces. However, he also stressed the importance of capitalizing on scoring opportunities, as ultimately, that is what wins games. In the end, Everton was content with the draw, while Arsenal was left frustrated once again.
