‘He is far superior to Chelsea Sterling and Rashford, since every shot he takes results in a goal. His goal-scoring mindset continues to astound me even now.’ Wayne Rooney, Manchester United star, says Arsenal’s £50 million player poses a threat to Premier League defenders. Not Saka, not Martinelli.
In the aftermath of Arsenal’s commanding 6-0 victory over West Ham at the London Stadium on Sunday, Chris Sutton shared his assessment of Leandro Trossard’s performance. Mikel Arteta’s team demonstrated dominance in the Premier League title race, dispelling concerns about their goal-scoring capabilities without a potent striker.
Leandro Trossard, entrusted with a leading role after Kai Havertz’s similar position in the previous clash against Liverpool, contributed to Arsenal’s goal spree. Despite a missed early opportunity, Trossard redeemed himself with a spectacular goal into the top corner just before halftime, causing chaos in West Ham’s faltering defense.
During The Monday Night Club discussion, Chris Sutton expressed astonishment at the £27 million forward’s display, commending Mikel Arteta for his strategic choice to deploy Trossard as a nine or a false nine. Sutton highlighted the team’s ability to overpower West Ham and lauded Arteta’s managerial prowess.
Considered a shrewd acquisition, Leandro Trossard has emerged as one of Arsenal’s most intelligent signings among the current squad. Despite arriving from Brighton in the relatively quiet January 2023 transfer window, Trossard has proven exceptional. His versatility, showcased by impactful performances across the forward line, poses a challenge for Arteta in deciding the role of Gabriel Jesus upon the Brazilian’s return from injury.
