Written back in February last year and I still think it could be an interesting option to try. It would probably depend on the team Arsenal are going up against but I like the idea of Trossard in the eight over something like Zinchenko in the eight.

    We should actually try Jesus there he naturally drops deep to bring the ball up the pitch, makes literally double the tackles Havertz makes, wins the ball at a higher %, has better at interceptions, looks better on the ball and presses more than Trossard and Havertz. From pure creating goals perspective Trossard has highest xA, xG and key passes per 90 in the whole team. Havertz only real win above the other 2 is in aerial duals, technically he wins xGbuildup (every possession you’re involved with that should lead to a goal chance) but the fact that he isn’t producing goals/assists despite this is actually a negative.
