‘I’ve been in the Premier League for a long time and I know when someone is good. He’s better than Luiz Diaz and Jota right now. Liverpool star Muhammed Salah says ONE Arsenal player is the reason for Arsenal’s amazing success this season.
Not too long ago, Arsenal supporters were urging their team to secure a striker amidst a faltering Premier League title bid. However, following Mikel Arteta and his squad’s return from the winter break, they exhibited an impressive offensive prowess, netting five goals against Crystal Palace, three against Liverpool, and six against West Ham United.
Leandro Trossard, who tallied three goals during this period, has garnered praise from Tim Sherwood, who deems him a ‘fantastic addition for Arsenal.’ The £27 million signing arrived at the Emirates in January, opting for the Brighton player over Mykhailo Mudryk, despite earlier strong links.
Trossard’s record stands at 10 goals and 12 assists in 50 games across all competitions, contrasting with Mudryk’s four goals and five assists in 42 Chelsea appearances. Tim Sherwood draws parallels between Trossard and Liverpool’s Diogo Jota, emphasizing their efficiency and readiness to step up when needed.
The former Arsenal player expresses a preference for Trossard over Havertz in the number nine position, praising his ability to impact the game with either assists or goals. Sherwood concludes that Trossard has proven to be an excellent acquisition for Arsenal, solidifying his spot in Mikel Arteta’s starting eleven.
