Arsenal's strongest striker is in the team!Against Liverpool Under-16s, one man scored 10 goals in a single game
In the 2022-23 season, Arsenal, who have led the Premier League standings for a long time, ended up in second place with a difference of 5 points. The failure to win the title was due to the lack of direct dialogue with Manchester City, the loss of some points against the weaker teams that should not have been lost, and the shortcomings of the squad.
So far this season, Manchester City has 12 games, 9 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses, accumulating 28 points to lead the Premier League standings, and Arsenal has 12 games, 8 wins, 3 draws and 1 loss accumulating 27 points, which is not much behind, but the prospect of winning the championship is still not optimistic.
In the past two years, Arsenal has invested a lot in reinforcements, and Arteta's squad has top players in almost every position, and there is more than one.
England legend Gary Neville thinks Arsenal can win the Premier League this season, the only concern is Arsenal's central striker position, "My concern for Arsenal is the central striker position, I like Gabriel Jesus and Nketiah, but in my opinion they are the number two and the number three, they need a number one centre-forward. ”
Arsenal currently have six strikers in their squad, with Nketiah scoring five goals, Bukayo Saka four, Leandro Trossard three, Gabriel Jesus one, Martinelli one and Nelson with zero goals in the Premier League this season. The names of Arsenal players could not be found in the top 10 of the Premier League's top scorers.
Last season, Odegaard and Martinelli were tied for the top in the Premier League with 15 goals, but they were not as good as one Erling Haaland (36) combined.
Robinson, another England legend, also believes that England can participate in the Premier League title, but the forward line is still lacking, "Arsenal's transfer operation this summer is great, Arsenal are still close to reaching the top of the league title, there is still a striker who can score 25 goals, Jesus can't score 25 goals in a season, Nketiah is also a top player, but he can't do it either. Forwardly, Arsenal are far from being able to match Manchester City. ”
It's not easy to find a striker who can score 25 goals a season in the transfer market. A youngster in Arsenal's academy may be worth looking forward to.
Recently, in England's U16 game, Arsenal U16 defeated Liverpool U16 with a score of 14:3 away, and Arsenal U16 striker Obi Martin scored 10 goals in this game. The 15-year-old has featured for Arsenal's Under-18s, Under-19s and Under-21s, as well as netting a hat-trick against Southampton in the Under-18s.
Obi Martin was born on 29 November 2007 and has made nine appearances for Denmark's Under-17 nation, scoring seven goals.
If fast, Obi Martin could be able to play for Arsenal in the Premier League next year. Yamal, who has contributed one goal and one assist in 13 La Liga games for Barcelona this season, was born only four months before Obi Martin. Barcelona youngster Fati, who is currently playing on loan at Brighton in the Premier League, also made his debut in La Liga at the age of 16.
