The Belgian player has won the trust of coach Mikel Arteta thanks to his impressive performance recently.
The “Gunners” enter the 2023/2024 season without any notable additions to the attack. The Arsenal coaching staff believes in the names available in the squad such as Bukayo Saka, Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli. On the other hand, Reiss Nelson or Eddie Nketiah are also given opportunities.
But the problem of the home team at Emirates Stadium gradually appeared when Gabriel Jesus and Gabriel Martinelli were not as effective in front of the opponent’s goal as expected, both of them only contributed 10 goals in the Premier League this season. , for a team in the championship race, this number is quite modest.
Just about a year ago, the Brazilian attacking duo still played an important role in Arsenal’s attack. The situation turned so quickly that even coach Mikel Arteta had no time to react. He was forced to make changes with the cards he had.
Kai Havertz, who was initially brought to North London with the purpose of replacing the void left by Granit Xhaka, did a good job when the 42-year-old coach placed him in the striker position. But the German player alone cannot bring too many breakthroughs to the home team at Emirates Stadium.
Fortunately, at a crucial moment, Leandro Trossard was ready to show his best for the “Gunners”. Throughout the season, the Belgian international shined many times to help Arsenal gain an advantage on the scoreboard. The recent confrontation with Manchester United at Old Trafford is the most typical example.
Impressive performance recently helped the former Brighton & Hove Albion player be the name chosen to play from the start, and he did not disappoint the Spanish coach as well as millions of Arsenal fans by scored the only goal to help the “Gunners” win all 3 points.
Among the attacking stars that Arsenal has in the squad, Leandro Trossard is the player with the highest rate of converting opportunities into goals, with 27%. The Belgian international even keeps up the habit of creating important moments even when he is not playing too close to the opponent’s goal.
Typically, every time Leandro Trossard scores, it is a positive omen for Arsenal. The “Gunners” have won their last 9 matches in the Premier League every time the Belgian player scored. This statistic can make fans of the red and white team feel more confident.
When the home team at Emirates Stadium failed to bring back Mykhaylo Mudryk in last winter’s transfer window. It was a real disappointment. But Leandro Trossard is like a gift that fate placed in Mikel Arteta’s hands , and the Spanish strategist has brought out his student’s full potential.
