Hector Bellerin insists Arsenal's first win of the season was always going to be 'just a question of time'

Arsenal manager Unai Emery went into the London derby having lost his first two matches as Arsenal's new head coach, to Manchester City and Chelsea. Despite falling behind to a Marko Arnautovic strike, Arsenal hit back to a 3-1 victory. Hector Bellerin insists Arsenal's first win of the season was always going to be 'just a question of time'. 'I wouldn't describe it as relief,' Bellerin told Arsenal Media. 'We've been working hard now for the last two months, so we knew it was just a question of time. 'We had two tough games to start after lots of changes at the club. We knew it was a question of time, a question of scoring the chances that we had.' 'We still could have been even more efficient,' added Bellerin. 'But even though we started behind in the scores, we turned it around and I was very happy with the reaction of the team as well. 'We knew we were playing at home with our crowd, it was a tough team, they've had a very good summer window. 'They've signed loads of top players, so even though they were still getting used to each other as well, we knew it was going to be tough. I think the score doesn't show how hard it was on the pitch.'
