Arteta understands what football is to the public. If you want to win the Premier League right now, its not about how many goals you are able to score in a match its about winning each game throughout the league and that is what Pep Guardiola has been doing right from the start of Manchester City. Right now Arsenals defense is stronger than what it is before, Arteta still bought more midfielders who can hold the ball for long and shoot when necessary. This is how they can win the league. When they concede less goal and win all the matches.

Goals still matter though and if you can score more goals even in a match you’re already winning, it’ll be a great thing for you going forward. What they call goal difference is very important in football and any team that’s able to create a big goal margin between them and their most closest opponent, it’ll be of advantage to them sooner when they are sharing same points on the league table. Arteta is a good coach, I haven’t lost faith in him yet, maybe he can do what we’ve been expecting from him when he took charge of the club in this season, winning the premier league trophy.

Former Chelsea player now pundit, Mikel Obi has been ranting about how Chelsea needs a striker who can score goals, criticizing Nicolas Jackson’s performance at Chelsea and favoring Victor Osimhen for that role. Jackson has since responded to Mikel Obi’s criticism on X, but even the fans know that Jackson’s finishing is poor and agree that the criticism is warranted. If I was a Chelsea fan, I would rather have Osimhen than Jackson in my team. In my opinion, Chelsea cannot depend on Nicolas Jackson as a striker, he is not a player that can guarantee you goals every week.

Your points are very valid and Jackson is not a striker you can depend on to score goals for you at anytime you want goals even when the chances are created for him, he’s not a good finisher when compared to Victor Osimhen. The criticism by the former Chelsea player on Nicholas Jackson was suppose to be done privately and not publicly, no player will like to be criticised like that openly. He should have at least suggested a new striker but not saying the present one isn’t good and the new one will be better than him. There’s a way he can pass this message without Nicholas feeling hurt, but in my opinion, he did it the wrong way.
