Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.

🔮 Speaking at a press conference on Friday afternoon ahead of Arsenal's match at home to Everton, Arteta did not put a firm timeframe on Saka’s return, but there are fears that he will be out for eight weeks.
🔮 If they can support all the demands that we are putting to the players in that sense, that would be as well really appreciated from everybody.
🔮 Well, for one night and you would expect one night only, the shackles were released.
🔮 Worked tirelessly but there was a sense Davies’ influence grew once Saka was off and he felt he could stay forward more.
🔮 Those plans were ripped up inside the opening ten minutes of the match in what will be a significant concern for Arteta.
🔮 "Yes, I would love to," Raya said.
🔮 Jurrien Timber is likely to come in at right-back, as he continues to share the minutes with Ben White. In midfield, Myles Lewis-Skelly will hope to get his chance over Bruno Guimaraes, while Martin Zubimendi is available again and “will be involved” after a minor hamstring issue.
🔮 He is not expected to be involved in Arsenal's showdown with Bayern on Wednesday night but his absence is not likely to be a lengthy one.
🔮 Got Williams booked early on but then did not do enough to test him.
