These attributes could be priceless with Declan Rice managing long-term nerve pain in his hamstring and Martin Ødegaard playing 40% of possible Premier League minutes last season. Opta’s data shows Arsenal misplaced 1,492 passes in the final third last season, the fourth most in the Premier League. Only Moisés Caicedo also reached that level in each of the previous four Premier League seasons. He has suffered 410 fouls in the Premier League, more than 100 more than anyone else during his time in England. And here’s the ultimate win from Arsenal’s perspective: only two players have scored more set-piece goals than Guimarães in the Premier League since early 2022 and they already own one of them.
