Arsenal enjoyed a 66% possession in the game, an improvement from their previous fixture in which they had a 62% possession and still managed to score only one goal against Newcastle.

This time around they moved around the ball efficiently with Ceballos being the wellspring of attacking ideas, but players like David Luiz and Nacho Monreal also making effective contributions in attack when in possession.

The players looked calm with the ball at their feet and linked up pretty well with their teammates to ensure that they do not waste possession and create some really great moves. They suddenly changed the tempo of the game, catching the Burnley defenders completely off-guard.

It seems Arsenal are finally ready to play Unai Emery's exciting, progressive style of football.
