Mikel Arteta, the manager of Arsenal, has spoken out about the conflict between Gabriel Magalhaes and William Saliba.
After the Gunners defeated Leicester 1-0 on Saturday, the center-back partners argued as they left the field.
Despite keeping their first spotless record in seven games, they quarreled, and Saliba is said to have shoved Gabriel.
When questioned about the circumstance prior to his team's Wednesday match against Everton, Arteta sounded unconcerned. Arteta said: "They love playing with each other. But they are really demanding of each other, which is good. Everything is fine."
Mikel Arteta refused to elaborate on what transpired or what caused the incident, instead insisting that his defensive team be a "happy marriage.".
Arsenal will be eager to improve on their performance against Everton in their previous meeting after suffering a 1-0 loss there in February.
The Gunners host Everton at the Emirates stadium on Wednesday night in the Premier League.
Arsenal could extend their lead at the top of the Premier League table with a win.
The Spanish boss added: "I don't want robots, I want players with feeling, with passion, that demand [more] from each other and that have a chemistry and those two certainly have that chemistry on and off the field.
"I love that even when winning, they want each other to do better."
