Eberechi Eze Is A Big Player – Arteta

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta has said that Eze’s goal was similar to the one he scored for Palace against the Gunners in last season’s corresponding fixture. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, the goal was highly important when it went in because Palace defended with many bodies and barely left any space open to exploit.

He added that Eze is a big player who keeps proving that he can be relied on when the going gets tough.

His words, “Yes, 100 percent — to strike the ball in the manner he did it, he did it very similarly last year but against us when he scored from that corner and directly [in off] the post.

So he’s got the ability to do that. We know against a team that defend with that many bodies, so physical, don’t allow any space, the [number] nine defending your best player, you have to generate chaos or open space at some moments to generate big chances. He took the ball and the goal really well.

That’s what big players do and he’s certainly a big player and hopefully that’s going to give him a big boost and confidence to generate many more moments like this because they are the moments that sometimes defines a season.”

WOW.
