The key attacking trio set for Arsenal will be in full boost after International Break. The attacking ranks at Arsenal which have been stretched thin by the recent injuries will be receiving a major boost. Many of the key players including the attacking trio will be returning to the club after the international break in November. The comebacks have come on time. It will give the Premier League leaders a significant boost before a significant phase in their season.
The necessity of reinforcement was seen in the previous Arsenal appearance. A 2-2 draw with Sunderland, during which the managers of the team could do little to alter the game on the bench. After the game, Arteta stated that the international break was necessary and the necessity of returning injured players.
Returning Attackers
The club’s injury situation, particularly in the forward line, is finally easing. As many as seven first-team attacking players have been unavailable recently. The collective cost of those injured attackers nearing ยฃ250 million.
In their case, Odegaard, Havertz and Madueke have the next North London derby at Tottenham on November 23. A realistic goal of making a comeback. Norway coach Stale Solbakken provided a positive news about his captain Odegaard. He said that he was fine and everything was proceeding as expected. Gabriel Martinelli is also hopeful of making a comeback upon the break.
A Timely Boost for a Tough Fixture Run
Another huge positive to Arteta is the fact that these players are returning and he termed this as a tremendous boost to the squad. The additional creativity, goal threat and depth will be essential to a challenging schedule. Following the derby in Tottenham, Arsenal will have tough games in the champions league against Bayern Munich and the premier league against Chelsea.
Having almost an entire strength squad to select, Arteta will be in a more better position to navigate this crucial run even as Arsenal strives to hold its head high in the table.
