Mikel Arteta has made Arsenal’s defense extremely difficult to break through this season, and he currently has the best defense in the Premier League, but today’s game against Aston Villa could be a real test for Gabriel and Holding, and the rest of our bottom line.
The Villains have already scored 15 goals in just 6 league games, and Jack Grealish and Ollie Watkins have scored 4 apiece, with Ross Barkley contributing a pair as well, so they’re in excellent shape at the moment.
Mikel Arteta has chosen Jack Grealish as the greatest threat to the Gunners, telling Goal: “He is a top player, a great talent, he is a player who can make a difference at any point in the game.
“He has that personality against any opponent, on any field, to take the ball in any area of the field and he can make a difference, so we have to take care of him.”
He’s thinking that if he keeps Grealish quiet, Watkins won’t be able to serve up front. But the 25-year-old is extremely difficult to stop in the final third. He became Villa’s record signing when he left Brentford this summer, and after scoring 26 goals for the Bees last season, he has picked up where he left off at his new club.
With the danger Barkley poses as well, the Gunners will find it very difficult to keep another clean sheet today, but we must keep the faith!
Go ahead and up!
