Overview
The commander’s desired lineup has finally been completed, and the prestigious London family has finally made a comeback.
・Considering that last season started with a three-game losing streak, a five-game winning streak leading the season should be heaven. The squad that Arteta, who prefers possession football, has, at least in terms of the starting line-up.
・The final line of 4 sheets is basically in the form of 3 backs. CB Saliba, who is a loanback and is essentially in his first season at Arsenal, showed a calm build-up, and newcomer Left SB Zinchenko plays in the midfield as a fake SB. In that amount, Xhaka, who plays in the left inside half, is pushed quite high and lively.
・In addition, Jesus, a new force, is not only involved in pass work, but also makes a chance by breaking through alone, making a big success with a play that he has not shown much in Manchester C. The set-pieces are also well prepared, and Magalhães shows off the strength of the aerial fight when the offense fails. Awareness of switching between offense and defense is high throughout the team, and there is no slacking at all in defense. Even if the counter is eaten, Partey is functioning as a filter.
・However, the problem that the difference in strength between the starting lineup and reserves is too large remains an issue. Especially when Partey is absent, the problem of the defensive power suddenly declining has been exposed since last season, and it has not been solved yet this season. Also, Saka’s backup on the right WB is absent, so if he is injured, his breaking power will definitely decrease. With the EL and the World Cup this season, rotation will be the key to future progress.

・”Savior of Gooner”
・After retiring as an active player, he worked as an assistant to Pep before becoming Arsenal’s manager, taking on the task of rebuilding the prestigious family.
・He has high demands on his players in terms of both tactics and discipline, and has a strict side that does not hesitate to exclude players who disturb the circle of the team, even if they are captains or superstars.
・At Arsenal, he first focused on building a solid defense, and at the beginning of his appointment, he built a defensive five-back.
・I have struggled for a long time without getting the squad I wanted, but this season I got it. In a year where the content is also noteworthy.
