“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 expressed admiration for an Arsenal player during the Premier League clash against Liverpool on Sunday. The match, held at the Emirates Stadium, showcased an impressive home performance from Arsenal. Bukayo Saka initiated the scoring through a potent counter-attack, and despite a goal by Luis Diaz 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 secured the victory in stoppage time. Amidst the focus on scorers and individual errors that shaped the game, Arteta highlighted one of his unsung heroes, Jorginho, the Gunners’ center-forward paired with Declan Rice in midfield. Jorginho’s exceptional performance in commanding the midfield and minimizing mistakes did not go unnoticed by his manager.
Arteta commended Jorginho as “unbelievable” and an “example, a role model” in a post-match interview. Jorginho’s inclusion in the game resulted from Gabriel Jesus not being deemed suitable to start. Kai Havertz’s shift into a more aggressive role created space in the midfield for Martin Odegaard to assume his regular position as a number 10, with Rice providing support from behind, allowing Jorginho to contribute to the team’s influence on the play.
