3 winners and 2 losers as Arsenal defenders come out on top against Everton

Kenneth Daly of Pain in the Arsenal analyzes the top performers and strugglers following Arsenal's 2-0 victory against Everton. Daly identifies defenders Ezri Konsa and Gabriel, along with midfielder Mikel Merino, as the primary winners from the match. Both centre-backs found the net, with Konsa opening the scoring from close range and Gabriel heading in a cross from Ben White.

Conversely, Daly highlights striker Viktor Gyokeres and goalkeeper David Raya as the game's two losers. The writer criticizes Gyokeres for remaining ineffective in Arsenal's possession system, while noting that Raya suffered an unusually shaky first half featuring multiple uncharacteristic handling and distribution errors.
