The congested schedule ahead for the Gunners, including the return of Champions League football, had been the rationale for the Spaniard\u2019s signing.<\/p>\n<p>But usurping Aaron Ramsdale in their fifth league game of the season? That was very much unforeseen.<\/p>\n<p>He spent much of the game outside his area on Sunday afternoon, that sweeper-keeper element valued by Mikel Arteta. There was little for him to do, though a clean-sheet is a clean-sheet, which will be a great confidence booster.<\/p>\n<p>All eyes will be on the No1 spot for Wednesday\u2019s European fixture against PSV.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s air to say that Everton supporters have been through the ringer in recent times, and Friday\u2019s news of Miami-based firm 777 Partners\u2019 \u00a3500million-plus takeover deal reared up familiar feelings. There are already questions over the funding\u2019s source.<\/p>\n<p>At Goodison Park on Sunday, no banners or particular stance could be seen \u2014 though the task of facing Arsenal may have occupied fans somewhat.<\/p>\n<p>For Sean Dyche, he had options of note on the Everton bench this time \u2014 including Dominic Calvert-Lewin. A luxury of nine men on hand, most of whom were senior players, in comparison to the mere four established outfield substitutions available against Sheffield United in their previous league game.<\/p>\n<p>Arsenal\u2019s away hoodoo at Goodison Park is finally over. Prior to Sunday, their only victory in the seven past visits was back in October 2017 when they won 5-2.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/17\/19\/75532623-12528885-Upon_David_Raya_s_move_from_Brentford_there_was_an_inevitability-a-21_1694976995662.jpg\" height=\"469\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Upon David Raya\u2019s move from Brentford there was an inevitability he would start at some point<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/1s\/2023\/09\/17\/19\/75532619-12528885-Fabio_Vieira_s_recent_Arsenal_performances_saw_him_rewarded_with-m-26_1694973654960.jpg\" height=\"466\" width=\"634\"><\/p>\n<p>Fabio Vieira\u2019s recent Arsenal performances saw him rewarded with a start at Goodison Park<\/p>\n<p>Arteta sticks by players regardless of fan feelings. Kai Havertz was an example, with calls to drop him ahead of the Manchester United game. Yet Fabio Vieira\u2019s performances had caught the eye in recent weeks, his reward a start here at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n<p>Vieira looked lively throughout, his assist for Gabriel Martinelli 19th-minute strike cancelled out by the VAR\u2019s offside decision. It goes to show that the North London club\u2019s season will revolve around far more than just 11 players.<\/p>\n<p>The lack of goals turned thoughts to the fully-fit Gabriel Jesus sat warming the bench. He has a particular penchant for the Toffees, having scored eight league goals against them \u2014 more than any other team he has faced.<\/p>\n<p>His introduction after 66 minutes, to replace Eddie Nketiah, arguably should have been sooner. Nevertheless, three minutes later the Gunners were in front.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/i.dailymail.co.uk\/i\/pix\/2017\/08\/02\/636x90_facebook_ad_sport.png\" width=\"636\" height=\"90\"><br \/>\nSource: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailymail.co.uk\/sport\/football\/article-12528885\/THE-NOTEBOOK-Arsenals-hoodoo-Goodison-Park-finally-Leandro-Trossards-goal-beats-Everton-Sean-Dyche-finally-options-note-Toffees-bench.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read Full Article<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>THE NOTEBOOK:\u00a0Arsenal\u2019s hoodoo at Goodison Park is finally over as Leandro Trossard&#8217;s goal beats Everton, as Sean Dyche finally had options of note on the <a class=\"mh-excerpt-more\" href=\"https:\/\/sportstoft.com\/soccer\/the-notebook-arsenals-hoodoo-at-goodison-park-is-finally-over\/\" title=\"THE NOTEBOOK:\u00a0Arsenal&amp;apos;s hoodoo at Goodison Park is finally over\">[&#8230;]<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":289023,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.8 -
