Am not cool with how arsenal played in the 1st half they couldn't make clear cut of their chances to get those goals we had expected of them within that half, they only managed to get an equalizer after conceding making it 1:1.
It cannot be said that Arsenal's performance is weak. Arsenal players played a very good first half. Arsenal players have 70% ball possession. Also made a lot of attacks. But still the match was tied at 1-1 at the end of the first half. Idrissa Gueye's goal gave Everton the lead in the 40th minute. And in just 3 minutes, Tomiyasu equalized the match with a goal. Arsenal's performance is good enough but they are not able to score.
Even though Everton are behind in the points table, they are not a weak side. Everton has played well this season as well. And the Everton team surprised everyone by performing well against the big teams several times. So I wouldn't be at all surprised if today's match is a draw and Arsenal don't get 3 points. This possibility is not low.
We can see how Everton prioritizes defense with the desire to end the match with a draw.
One mistake that Arsenal made was that they had more possession of the ball but just lacked focus on finding a way to break into Everton's goal and in my opinion Arsenal should have attacked from the side to try to score and if Arsenal continued to try to score with central attacks it would definitely be very difficult because Everton's players were more prioritize survival.
To be sincere, even without winning the EPL title again this season under Arteta am impressed with Arsenal progress, they just have to do more next season beyond progressing to a second position on the table to winning the title.
Congratulations to Gardiola and his men, record broken, record set.

Pep Guardiola will continue to improve the performance of the players and of course Pep Guardiola will prioritize the attack line.
Talking about Arsenal, I would not agree if Arsenal were said to have performed well in the match against Everton.
Arsenal almost ended in a draw when Everton after scoring the first score became more focused on defense and I saw that after Everton conceded, Everton's defense line became very strong and Arsenal players always had difficulty scoring additional scores.
Very lucky when Kai Havertz managed to take advantage of a very good opportunity to get 1 score and seal the win.
Arsenal still have a lot to improve if they want to win the PL title, Arteta definitely has to set the right strategy by taking every mistake this season.
