Simon Collings reacts to Arsenal's win over Everton
Transcript
00:00 You join me here outside a rather wet Goodison Park where Michael Arteta will be a very happy man this evening.
00:06 Arsenal heading back to North London with all three points.
00:09 It was interesting hearing from Arteta in his post-match press conference.
00:12 A lot of the talk, as you can imagine, was all around the David Rye/Aaron Ramsdale debate.
00:17 David Rye getting his first start in an Arsenal shirt.
00:20 I thought he looked pretty good, very composed, very calm.
00:22 Didn't have masses to do but just ooze the calmness you want from a goalkeeper, particularly out of ground like this.
00:27 Arteta speaking afterwards, he was basically explaining it as being like a normal outfield position.
00:33 Players are rotated, players are under threat for their positions.
00:36 This is to what we expected.
00:38 Interestingly, he revealed that twice in his managerial career he's had moments where he wished he substituted a goalkeeper and didn't.
00:44 Perhaps I'll be seeing the start of the future where you have two number ones.
00:48 I don't know. I always feel like it's something that's going to come to a head at some point.
00:51 Arteta certainly thinks he can do it. Only time will tell.
00:54 but for now, Arsenal three more points and a very happy side returning to North London.
