Arsenal’s Champions League win: positives and negatives

Arsenal secured a comfortable victory against Monaco in the Champions League, despite fielding a makeshift back four. While the scoreline flattered the Gunners, the match showcased both positives and negatives.

**Positives:**

* A strong performance overall, with chances created and a dominant display.
* The emergence of Myles Lewis-Skelly, who made his first European start.
* A return to winning ways after a disappointing draw against Fulham.

**Negatives:**

* Missed opportunities, including three one-on-one situations.
* Concerns over the lack of a natural left-footed left-back.
* The continued absence of Kieran Tierney, who is yet to play a single minute this season.

**Looking ahead:**

The question remains whether Arteta will stick with the same back four against Everton this weekend. The performance against Monaco suggests that a change could be beneficial, particularly with Tierney’s return still uncertain.
