Arsenal secured the 2-0 win at Aston Villa thanks to second-half goals from Leandro Trossard and Thomas Partey on Saturday.
The Gunners boss spoke to BBC Match of the Day on whether his side’s win over Aston Villa feels like a significant one:
“It feels like it because there was a history in those two games last year. It was in our toughness and we had to show it against a really difficult team and we found a way to win the game.
“We generated a lot of situations and a lot of domination but we didn’t translate that into the score. To be a great team, a total team, you need everyone to contribute.
