PSV Eindhoven 2 - 0 Arsenal

this was really a big surprise, but also the arsenal coach was very wrong in not having put gabriel jesus right at the beginning of the game, what did he expect? that PSV would be such a weak team that they couldn't win even if Arsenal didn't play very seriously? Or is it that Arsenal doesn't take europa league seriously?

Not a surprise for me, I think Arteta did not take the game seriously and he decided to play with his secondary team because he knows that their position in the group stage is safe enough with 12 points. In other words Arteta decided to rest some of his main players in the bench. I dont think Arteta do not take Europa League seriously but he decide to play effectively based on their situation and position in the group stage. It is normal to see something like this, where a team think that the position is safe enough then the coach decide to give chance for other players.
