Arsenal right-back Takehiro Tomiyasu has been speaking about Arsenal’s need to secure all three points against Everton tonight
Arsenal defender Takehiro Tomiyasu has spoken about what his side must do differently against Everton tonight in order to rectify their 1-0 loss at Goodison Park in the reverse fixture.
Discussing the frustrating result, the Japanese international said: “We learnt a lot of things, the biggest one was we ran less than them. After the game, Mikel told us we had to run extra hard so first of all, we have to run more than them. Then we have to compete, and we have to focus on the basics.
“That game they changed the manager and it was his first game for them, so now we know what they want to do. They like to fight, they like to run and they want to put the ball in the box a lot, so we have to defend our box.
“We have to prepare right and be ready for the fight, because we have to take three points.”
