If as reported Arsenal are close to cometing a deal with Gyokeres, Arsenal will now have a proven goal scorer up front. With Nunéz looking as if he will be going to Napoli, then we need to get a deal done for a 2 new strikers, sooner rather than later.
I doubt they’ll play both up top tbh. Either way, this must be Arteta’s last year if he doesn’t win anything.
Will def free up rice to get forward more where he is better - not as good as a holding 6. Has too much energy then can use to get up and down as an 8 if zubimendi is holding behind. Just remains to be seen it Zubi can adapt to the speed of the prem and if he is left as lone midfielder if he has physicality to be able to break up attacks when left on his own.
The speed…..I’m sure he’ll be fine….i recall when he came on in the Euro finals for Spain for Rodri and improved them. The physicality; well not know for a few months.
