Merino recently scored a hat-trick in the Spanish national team, vividly demonstrating his ability to seize opportunities in the penalty area. Arsenal team reporter Charles Watts believes that Merino is an underrated player and is often criticized unfairly, and many people mistakenly regard him as a defensive player.
reporters pointed out that Merino does give people a feeling of insufficient creativity in the midfield when he appears with Rice and Suvimenti, but there is no doubt that Merino can bring a huge threat to score and only smell opportunities. He can always maintain an amazing calmness. Therefore, the question is that it is still not clear enough about what role Merino plays in Arteta's system.
When Merino was placed in the midfield, we rarely see him moving to a position that creates scoring opportunities, and if Arteta wants to maximize his role, he may need to find a character that will give him more freedom near the penalty area.
But the reality is that this is unlikely to happen unless he is allowed to play forward, which is why it is difficult for Merino to become a regular starter for the team when all members are healthy. However, due to Arteta's high praise for him, Merino will still get a lot of playing time and become a very useful substitute.
Saliba's recent injury was a blow to Arsenal. Reports from France said that the player may be missing for 3-4 weeks due to an ankle injury. This news has not been confirmed by British sources. At this time, Arsenal's lineup depth will be very critical.
Although Moskara is still young, he has accumulated rich experience in the top league. In the game against Liverpool, he showed excellent defensive ability and dealt with that high-pressure situation well. If Saliba is unable to play in the next few games, Mosquera will be trusted.
Of course, there are other options in Arsenal. Ben White is about to return from injury, Timber can do it, and if necessary, Calafiori can do it. But these are unlikely, Moscra has shown his strength, and Arteta is very satisfied with the player.
