📌 Analysis
This summer’s pre-season has been a mixed bag for 𝐀𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐥. While some performances lacked consistency — particularly against Tottenham and Villarreal — the team ended on a high note, delivering their best display in the 3–0 win over Athletic Club. The tempo, aggression, and creativity in that match were on a different level.
One huge positive: all summer signings are making an impact.
• 𝐙𝐮𝐛𝐢𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐢 – dictating midfield with intelligence and composure.
• 𝐊𝐞𝐩𝐚 – sharp reflexes and leadership at the back.
• 𝐌𝐨𝐬𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐫𝐚 – physical presence in defence.
• 𝐆𝐲ö𝐤𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐬 – relentless pressing and attacking hunger.
• 𝐍ö𝐫𝐠𝐚𝐚𝐫𝐝 – tenacious in the middle, covers ground endlessly.
• 𝐌𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐞𝐤𝐞 – pace and flair out wide, adding unpredictability.

Momentum is back after that Bilbao masterclass. If this intensity is carried into Sunday, 𝐀𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐚𝐥 will be more than ready for the challenge at the Emirates. The hunger is there, the chemistry is building — now it’s about delivering when it matters most.
