Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has no qualms about his team getting involved in a tussle against Everton.
The Gunners will take on the Toffees in the Premier League as they look to keep pace with Manchester City.
However, Arteta knows that Everton's Sean Dyche will look to make the game a war of attrition rather than skill.
Asked if his team can respond in kind, Arteta told reporters: Sometimes we cannot avoid a battle.
There are certain balls that you have to prove and they have a certain style of play that they are extremely good at.
We have a very different one and when you are trying to impose your way of playing it is about trying to make sure your opponents' strengths are completely hiding and yours are coming out every time to fulfil your time."
