Ian Wright Talks about Mesut Ozil’s Removal from the Arsenal Squad

DBasia.news – Arsenal legendary player, Ian Wright, called Arsenal very embarrassing because they did not use the services of a player like Mesut Ozil. However, admittedly, Mikael Arteta had to make a decision that felt the best for the club

Arsenal defeated 1-0 when they hosted Leicester in the 2020-2021 Premier League match, at the Emirates Stadium, Sunday (25/10). Jamie Vardy’s goal in the second half made the difference.

These results raise concerns for Ian Wright. The reason is, the following week, Mikel Arteta’s squad will visit Manchester United’s headquarters. According to Wright, The Red Devils and Leicester have a similar playing style.

“You also see Manchester United is another team that plays on the counter-attack. You have to be able to deal with it, can solve it,” explained Ian Wright as reported by Metro.

“Manchester United will do the same thing as Leicester City. They have better players, more than just Vardy. It will be difficult because Manchester United will look tough.”

Ian Wright assessed that the speed of Manchester United’s forwards would be a threat to Arsenal’s weak transition. One of the Man United players who is dangerous is Marcus Rashford.

“On the counter-attack you can see what happened to Vardy tonight. Rashford will cause problems for Arsenal.”

Before facing Manchester United, Arsenal will continue their work in the Europa League. Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and his friends host Dundalk on matchday 2 of Group B of the 2020-2021 Europa League, at the Emirates Stadium, Friday (30/10). In the first match, Arsenal won against Rapid Wien.
