Russo admitted the team has struggled for results and called the derby victory an important opportunity to turn their campaign around.
Meanwhile, Manchester United’s new manager Marc Skinner made progress by holding Manchester City to a draw, ending City’s perfect start. Arsenal still need to improve their passing and defensive grit, but this result could be the spark they need to salvage their season.
