It doesn't matter who starts and who sits on the bench, both teams did portrayed their best on the pitch, I guessed the best team wins. Manchester city have achieved quite alot during Pep Guardiola incharged, losing do happen to other elite clubs, and Manchester city was not exempted. The game was tough for both sides, the cityzens keep domination while the gunners were extremely defensive, securing their territory with everything they had. Mikel Arteta boosts the moral of the fans with additional potential new players in the squad, I would say that Arsenal is quite different from the one we met.
The movement of the summer transfer market has an immediate impact on the Arsenal squad, even if this is just the Community Shield trophy. This will add to Arsenal mentality going into the EPL next week, I think it's a lucky start for Arteta. Pep Guardiola is not disappointed with this result, because Man City has won the EPL and the Champions League.
This victory could be a sign for Man City, that Arsenal are worthy as equal opponents in the English Premier League, besides Man United and Chelsea.
Arsenal succeeded in securing the first trophy after making moves in the transfer market to bring in several new players, after beating Manchester City even though in the penalty shootout and winning the Community Shield trophy, Arteta's squad is increasingly confident in welcoming the new season with confidence. Arsenal looked dangerous every time they built an attack, Arteta's men had a better chance to score in the first half, but the chance Arsenal got through Havertz was blocked by Stefan Ortega.
This defeat does not mean that Guardiola's squad is getting weaker after successfully achieving success last season, Guardiola did not bring Ederson to this match, maybe Guardiola was not too focused on this title. The new strength formed by Arteta has succeeded in bringing Arsenal to beat Manchester City, Arsenal are increasingly confident with the positive results they have just achieved and are challenging for the EPL trophy this season.
