The duo signed for the Gunners in January from Manchester United and Dortmund respectively and set pulses racing on their Premier League debuts when Arsenal dismantled Everton 5-1. ‘They need some time to adapt,’ said Wenger after the 3-0 defeat. Bernardo Silva put the visitors ahead before David Silva finished off a fantastic team move to double Pep Guardiola’s side’s lead. Ederson’s penalty save from Aubameyang summed up an awful display from the Gunners, who face Brighton on Sunday.
