From the source

Arsenal scored from set pieces in their 2-0 victory over Everton at the weekend, giving Mikel Arteta reason to believe his side can become more dangerous from dead-ball situations.

The Gunners found the net twice from set pieces, and their manager hopes the performance will help restore confidence in an area that attracted considerable attention last season.

Arsenal were labelled ‘set-piece FC’ last term because of their frequent reliance on dead ball situations. Their effectiveness from corners and free kicks became a significant part of their campaign, while the club’s specialist set-piece coach, Nico Jover, also attracted attention and occasional mockery from rival supporters.
