Seven Takeaways from Villa: A good day out was had by all as Arsenal made it two wins on the bounce in front of loyal Gooners, as Ben White booted the ball at McGinn as an added bonus
While I agree that Martinelli's end-product has been poor for some time, the Brighton game was another reminder that Trossard is far less effective when he starts.
Would it be stretching a point to suggest his frustration at being left on the bench actually contributes to his effectiveness when he comes on, making him more determined to prove a point?
I also think he benefits from Gabi having run the full-back ragged for 70 minutes, so Leo has the advantage of tired opponents when he replaces him.
PS. That jibe at Sterling hasn't aged well has it!
Nice takes Layth👍
