Trossard OMG

He hasn't been great in recent games but I thought he did well when he came on against Chelsea and was Arsenal's main threat.

Total neutral, but apart from Saka I don’t think any of Arsenal’s forwards are good enough, often enough (or when it really matters) to win you titles. Trossard, Martinelli and Havertz are all decent players, sometimes very good, but they can’t be depended on in big moments.

Trossard has been abysmal for some time, how he gets selected ahead of Nwaneri is unfathomable - shocking from Arteta & it has cost us dearly.

Good enough to be in and around the squad / on the bench but not good enough if we ever want to win the PL / CL.

Simple really.

(Cannot be starting XI I mean, simply not at the level).

I think you can get away with one who still has potential to improve like Martinelli but you can't get away with two of your front three being squad level quality.

He has been very average recently but can't blame him for yesterday. Both his chances would have been offside anyway

Sadly, this evaluation of Arsenal's lack of depth after only roughly a quarter of the PL season speaks to Arteta's lack of vision and team building skills. Probably time for him to go.
