Mikel Arteta's lineup choices reflected the best of the rest missing out Saliba.The first half was dominated by Arsenal, who created numerous chances and kept Villa's defense under constant pressure. Gabriel Martinelli broke the deadlock. However, there were moments of concern as well, particularly in defensive transitions where Villa looked threatening on the counter.Arsenal continued to assert their dominance early in the second half, doubling their lead through Kai Havertz. However, Villa fought back valiantly, exposing Arsenal's defensive frailties in single moments.The match ended in dramatic fashion, with Arsenal having a late goal disallowed by VAR for handball. Was it really? This moment capped off a rollercoaster of emotions for the Gunners. As we look ahead to upcoming challenges, this draw serves as a reminder of the work still to be done. Hopefully we can get that from additions to the squad, but Arsenal can't afford many more slip-ups. On to the next one—Onwards & upwards. C'mon Arsenal!
