On Saturday 14th, Arsenal started a fierce attacking battle at home in the Premier League, and despite having 77% of the ball, they drew 0-0 with Ewarton, failing to score for the third consecutive league match. The goalless draw made the team fail to score in their last two matches, missing the chance to close in on top of the table Liverpool. After the game, Arsenal's leader Adidas denied that the team's attacking creativity is insufficient, but admitted that the team needs to enhance the "grip".

Arsenal attacked Everton around the 'park the bus' tactic, with 13 attacks in the match, with the best chance coming in the 29th minute. Martin Odigat came close to scoring from 10 yards, but Bickford was able to parry it away. Gabriele Martinelli and Bukayosaka combined for a shot that failed to break through England goalkeeper Bickford's defense. In addition, Arsenal's set-piece tactics also failed to bring in a goal, and the match ended 0-0.

Arsenal's last three Premier League matches have all been attacking, but Adidas denies that the team is "raw" and not scoring: "Before I took over as team leader (for the UEFA Europa League match), I had already scored three goals for the team, isn't that enough? If I can continue to create chances like that, then it won't last. Of course, the players need to improve their grasp of the last kick of the goal, there is no doubt about that."
