🚨 BREAKING NEWS! 🚨 FABREGAS REACT TO TOTTENHAM vs ARSENAL
As we gear up for the all-important North London Derby between Arsenal and Tottenham, Arsenal legend Cesc Fabregas has some intriguing advice for Mikel Arteta. Fabregas suggests that Leandro Trossard should step in and start in the midfield to replace the injured Martin Ødegaard.
Martin Ødegaard suffered an ankle injury during Norway’s Nations League match against Austria and was later seen on crutches. While Ødegaard has avoided a fracture, he could be out for around three weeks, putting him in doubt for the big clash against Spurs. With Declan Rice suspended and other key players like Gabriel Jesus and Takehiro Tomiyasu also dealing with injuries, Arteta faces a major selection dilemma ahead of this critical match.
In an interview, Fabregas suggested that Trossard’s technical qualities and football intelligence make him a great fit for the midfield role usually occupied by Ødegaard. Trossard has mostly played as a winger for Arsenal, but Fabregas believes that he can thrive in a No.8 or No.10 role, providing the creativity and attacking threat that Ødegaard normally brings to the team.
Fabregas also touched on Ethan Nwaneri, the 17-year-old academy product who could potentially feature in midfield, but the ex-Arsenal captain feels that Trossard’s experience makes him the better option for such a high-pressure game.
The North London Derby is more than just three points – it’s about pride, momentum, and maintaining Arsenal’s Premier League title challenge. With Tottenham aiming for a top-six finish, Arsenal’s ambitions go much higher, and this match could be key to their success this season.
