That’s a nearly perfect up back and through move. Very nice from Merino there.

It’s interesting to see just how ineffective Liverpool were threatening Arsenal’s box here. They picked up a ton of possession in the second half against Arsenal but it was often very defensive type possession.

I took a fair amount of heat for it but the ELO adjusted Portugal OP shot and NPxG numbers were 2.09 and 0.43 per 90.
His numbers this season are 1.7 op shots and 0.29 np goals. The ELO adjustment seemed to push things down towards the right spot.

Viktor Gyökeres - Goal and Shot Production for a 'successful' season
I committed to doing this every week so I don't want to stop but it kind of feels like it is a piling on here. I never want to see a player at Arsenal struggle and he from the outside looks to be in the middle of that right now.

Premier League Simulation - 2026-01-09
Man City perform better while they drop points this midweek so they drop off less than Arsenal. No points gained and another round less still puts things heavily towards Arsenal.
The most interesting fight is going to be what happens after 1-2 right now.

It's a big one for Arsenal, this is on paper/spreadsheets one of Arsenal's tougher remaining matches. A win here is huge for the title and for getting a bit of revenge for the Anfield match.
