“He’s one of the best players I’ve seen played with, Arsenal fans don’t know his value if not, they will respect him more”- Real Madrid player’s name ONE Arsenal player is one of the best players in the world, and he would love to play with him. No Saka, no Odegard, and no Declan Rice
Mikel Arteta showered praise on an Arsenal player during Sunday’s Premier League clash against Liverpool at the Emirates Stadium. The team exhibited an outstanding home performance, with Bukayo Saka initiating the scoring through a potent counter-attack. Although Luis Diaz narrowed the gap just before halftime, Arsenal regained and extended their lead in the second half.
Gabriel Martinelli capitalized on a mistake by Virgil van Dijk and Alisson, while Leandro Trossard sealed the victory in stoppage time. Amidst the focus on scorers and those responsible for key blunders, Arteta emphasized the contribution of an unsung hero – Jorginho, the Gunners’ center-forward alongside Declan Rice in midfield. Arteta lauded Jorginho’s remarkable performance, labeling him an “example” and a “role model.”
Jorginho entered the game as Gabriel Jesus seemed unfit to start. Kai Havertz’s shift to a more aggressive role created space in the midfield, enabling Martin Odegaard to assume his regular number 10 position, with Rice behind him. This tactical adjustment allowed Jorginho to enter the game and exert a positive influence on the play, as noted by Arteta in a post-match interview.
