The gunners manager Arsene Wenger was so delighted with Aubameyang and mkhitaryan debut has the home side demolished Everton yet again. It was a 5 goal thriller as Aaron Ramsey recorded an hatrick making him the 20th Arsenal player to achieve such feet.
The infusion of Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang bundesliga top scorer last season with 31 goal to his credit as brought a new spark to the gunners. Along side Mkhitaryan whose conduct in the Arsenal attack was massive, as he contributed 3 assist and later on got awarded with the man of the match. These sealed the victory as the gunners breeze pass their opponent in style.
The Everton side were so disorganized as they conceded to Arsenal four times in the first 45 minute. Manager Sam Allardyce described his sides performance as 'pathetic'. The goals kept rolling in as Aaron Ramsey touch from a Mkhitaryan cross got the opener for the home side. Impressive Koscielny got ahead of Aubameyang to head in the second from a Mesut Ozil corner. Ramsey was giving so much firing space as a deflection saw the gunner net in the third after 19 minutes of play. A pass from Mkhitaryan was all Aubameyang needed to place the ball by the side of Everton goal keeper to score the fourth. A replay shows it was offside, but no call was made. The Duo who both played together at Bundesliga side Borussia Dortmund were suberb and seem to have alot of synergy between them. At half time Everton were four nil down with little hope recovering.
The second half saw Everton change their back formation to four defenders. That solidified the defence and they had more composure all through the second 45 minute. The second half wasn't without goals. The two side found the net just once. Substitute Calvert-Lewin headed in Everton consolation from Cuco Martina's left-wing cross in the 64th minute. Arsenal responded 10 minute later with a low pass from Mkhitaryan to rampsey as he made it five goals to one with an hat-trick to his name.
It was a huge relief for the gunner as they previously lost 3 - 1 to Swansea during the course of the week. They now await the crucial London derby as they go away to face spurs this weekend. If they manage to put up this kind of performance in their next match they might just be closing the 4 point gap between them and 4th place rival Tottenham.
