Emmanuel Petit names the player at Arsenal who really reminds him of Man City’s Bernardo Silva

Mikel Arteta has a few selection issues in his squad right now.

The Arsenal boss just can’t s🍒eem to get his team to click right now. The Gunners are now three without a win in the Premier League, and the team looks seriously disjointed.

💜Ian Wright has said that he’s not happy with how Kai Havertz is being used right now, while there have been su๊ggestions that Declan R𒈔ice is also being used in the wrong position.

Speaking on TalkSPORT, Emmanuel Petit has now raised a similar concern about Bernardo Silva.

Indeed, the pundit says that he doesn’t know Trossard’s best position, despite the fac🍰t he’s a very versatile player, comparable to Bernardo Silva.

Leandro Trossard compared to Bernardo Silva

P🐻etﷺit shared his verdict on Trossard, comparing him to Manchester City’s Bernardo Silva.

The pundit says that he does like the man, but he thinks Mikel Arteta isn’t doing him any favours when changing hi🎐s positio𝔉n so consistently.

“Hꦑe reminds me of Silva at City, but Silva for me is a much better player than Trossard. He can play in different positions, but do you know the re🅺al position of Trossard?” Petit said.

“I have no idea. I like him. He is a good player, honestly, but, you know, changing position all the time like t⛎his just to suit Arteta or the tactics, sometimes, you know, it’s hard to cope with it.”

What is Leandro Trossard’s best position?

Petit says that he can’t figure out what Trossard’s best position is, but the numbers 🍌show he has a clear favourite role.

Trossard has played in so many different positions during his career, b💝ut clearly, as the numbers shoཧw, he’s best utilised down the left wing.

However, with Martin Odegaard out injured recently, Trossard has been utilsed more often through the centre, either as a striker or ♉an attacking midfielder.

Luckily, with Odegaard now back in action, Trossꦛard should be able to return to play in his favoured left wing position soon, and, fingers crossed, that can help Arsenal rediscover their best form.

Arsenal haven’t been good enough recently, and if this sort of form conti𝔍nues for too much longer, the title race will be over befor🍌e it ever really got started for Arsenal.
