How much more pt does ESR need for people to stop acting like he’s the player they think he is. How tf does someone do genuinely nothing off ball as a midfielder
Not quite sure how this narrative has been allowed to spread so much in the Arsenal fanbase. He prefers to check and block passing lanes before pressing, which means it looks like he’s not working as hard but in reality its just as important as getting pressures.
ESR defensively is extremely tactically intelligent and as a result generates very high levels of interceptions, particularly in the final third.
Then of course we can speak to his great work off the ball in an attacking sense, which is arguably second to none in this team
