With only 10 games left, Arsenal leads the Premier League by an eight-point margin.
If this special, breathtaking Arsenal side manage to clinch the club’s first Premier League title since 2004 – there is one particular signing that may have to thank. It’s not the excellent William Saliba, ever-improving Aaron Ramsdale or majestic Thomas Partey – despite their outstanding contributions this season. Leandro Trossard is Mikel Arteta’s new go-to guy and in all honesty, it looks like he has been part of the furniture at Arsenal for the best part of a decade.
His incisive runs, clever linkup play and efficiency in the final third has elevated the Gunners to new heights in recent weeks, at a time when Manchester City have started to turn the screw.
Trossard was only supposed to be a Plan B signing after Chelsea snatched Mykhaylo Mudryk from their clutches but actually given there was a £62million difference in their price tags, Arsenal have come out the major winners.
The Belgian‘s capability to play in multiple positions and his perfect alignment with Arteta‘s team and style of play make him an ideal signing for Arsenal, showcasing Edu‘s impressive acumen once again.
Arsenal could have waited until the summer after missing out on Mudryk but they knew this was the time to strike in the transfer market and now they are reaping the rewards.
The club have made every effort to give themselves the best shot at the title, and now they could be on the brink of achieving their goal; Trossard is their key player.
He has been incredibly impressive in the midst of Arsenal‘s need for rejuvenation.
Arsenal picked up just one point from three Premier League matches upon his arrival in January and it was an indication that the Gunners were in a mini-rut for the first time this season.
Trossard contributed to the 1–1 tie with Brentford, then proceeded to be instrumental in Arsenal‘s successful streak of six consecutive Premier League wins.
