Arsenal struggled in the game against Southampton because Arteta decided to do some experimenting with his starting lineup. Thomas Partey was positioned in right back and that decision had an impact on their performance in the first half. If Arteta had played his regular starting eleven, Arsenal would have easily gotten the goals. Saka has been on a different level since wearing the Captain band. Kai Harvertz keeps improving game after game, I just love the connection within the squad.
Arsenal bounce back to the game, this time we're watching Arsenal 2.0 and we know the high expectation of the club when it comes to top winnings. They're elite side and winning does come easy on their path, surpassing all oppositions and behind Manchester City. You will blame the coach for the change in the starting line-up? Absolutely not because there's always room to create new chance and space for game tactics. Mikel Arteta mean no harm, he was only trying so hard to make sure he's having a proper formidable squad that's capable of handling oppositions without fear.
On the other hand, Thomas Partry did his best to ensure he carried out his role effectively on the pitch. Meanwhile we watched Kai Havertz doing what he does best, netting goals and Bukayo Saka with stunning stats. The game changes completely around infavour of Gunners, I don't see them as lucky team, I see them as a club that have come for major winnings and accomplishing their ultimate priorities this season.
