“Changed the game” – Mikel Arteta credits himself with decisive Arsenal substitution

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has admitted that him bringing Declan Rice on from the bench against Crystal Palace changed the game.

The Gunners thrashed Palace 5-1 at Selhurst Park, but there were a lot of moments in the game when they actually didn’t look as defensively solid as they often do.

Palace were a little unlucky not to have done more damage to the Arsenal defence, while there was simply some really clinical finishing from Arteta’s attackers on the night.
