Alexandre Lacazette has praised Mikel Arteta’s change in tactics that has helped Arsenal to their recent victories.
The Gunners had been on a losing streak for some time before their win against Chelsea and Brighton.
Their biggest problem during that losing streak was creativity as they struggled to get balls to their attacking players.
But Arteta has recently made the switch to a 4-3-3 formation that has helped them win their last two games.
Lacazette spoke about his improvement in form recently, and spoke about how Arteta has deliberately played to his strength in recent team matches.
That has helped them to achieve the victories they have achieved so far.
He said that in the previous tactical setup, they lacked attacking players, but that’s not the case in the new formation.
He told RMC via Mail Online: ‘The coach puts me as number 9, but more with a role to play for my teammates and to challenge a lot. It’s not really a 10 position, not a dated No. 9 that has to stay ahead and score goals.
“He knows my qualities and he knows that I like to play short and help my teammates in the development of the game.
‘Now we are four behind and three midfielders. It’s much easier, because before we didn’t have attacking players. This tactical change is also good for us ”.
Arsenal will face West Brom in their next Premier League game, and they will be hoping to get the victory they need to maintain their good form.
