Martin Keown has been impressed with Leandro Trossard and is delighted that the Gunners signed the Belgian, especially after his performance against Leicester City today.
Since joining Arsenal, Trossard has been one of their standout players, consistently making important contributions to the team’s success this season.
In the absence of Martin Odegaard, Arsenal has struggled with creativity, which has allowed Trossard to start more games for the club.
Trossard often makes a bigger impact when coming off the bench than when starting, which has been the case for several weeks.
However, he broke that pattern in the match against Leicester City, scoring a goal and forcing Wilfried Ndidi to score an own goal, putting Arsenal back in the lead.
Like many Arsenal fans, Keown watched the game and couldn’t help but praise the club for signing such an influential player.
He said on BBC Live:
“What a buy Leandro Trossard was! Worth every penny.”
Just Arsenal Opinion
Trossard has been an important player for us and it feels really good to have him in the team.
The Belgian makes us more dangerous on the attack and if he keeps scoring, it will be hard to leave him out even when Odegaard returns.
ADMIN COMMENT
So here are some simple rules which I must insist commenters follow….
You agree not to give any personal abuse to other Arsenal fans. Everyone is allowed to hold their own opinions even if you disagree with them. It COSTS NOTHING TO BE POLITE TO OTHER ARSENAL FANS.
CALLING ALL ARSENAL FANS! Anyone who would like to contribute an Article or Video opinion piece on JustArsenal, please contact us through this link…
At last, someone actually appreciating what Trossard brings to this team. Something lacking on this site by many, who think they know football. Not one mention of Trossard in the post match articles. Start appreciating what you have, if you understand football!!!!!
Oh and Martin, you are right. Absolute bargain.
I hope you can take your own advice too and start appreciating what you have in your manager (Arteta). The same guy that attracted Trossard to Arsenal.
Isn’t it?
👍🤞.
We all have our opinions about players, the manager and the team in general and it’s healthy so long as it is objective, Arsenal under Arteta has been on the up and this is a fact no one can deny, I won’t be surprised if finally we have a serious trophy in our trophy cabinet at the end of the season, we love this legendary club
So, Goonster, if the same guy as you put it, attracted Trossard to Arsenal (which, he didn’t, He wanted Mudryk), not Trossard. Why in the 22/23 season, in the run-in, when the goals dried up, did he not use him? When Arteta wins the league or CL with the team that has been assembled (at great expense) then Arteta will get all the plaudids, he will deserve. We are a very solid team under his guidance but until he wins what he should, praise for getting CL football and nothing else, will not do it. We sacked a manager that had won trophies for years, for only getting CL football. Why should the goalposts change? Let win something this season!!!!
So Reggie
Arteta has achieved more than just CL football, by coming second and taking the title race to the last game he achieved something that hadn’t happened in years, in fact except for some less than fair Ref decisions in one of the games against Newcastle we would have won the league so don’t get too high and mighty, he is doing a pretty good job and if we didn’t have the Ref’s making it harder for us to chase down Man City we would be closer this season!
Poppy,
Enough of this if the referee had not done this or that at Newcastle rubbish.
If my memory serves me correctly, Arsenal’s overall performance that day was pathetic. And listening to the absolute drivel coming out of Arteta’s mouth about how proud he was of his players and how they competed with Newcastle.
What an absolute load of drivel. Newcastle were injury ravaged going into that game, and for Arteta to say what he said was laughable at best.
So please, while I to acknowledge that the Newcastle goal should not have stood on three questionable incidents leading up to the goal, if Arsenal’s overall performance had been better, they wouldn’t have had to rely on a referee’s decision right or wrong.
They only had one shot on target all game, and remember this was against an injury ravaged Newcastle side on the day.
But don’t look at the game as a whole, because it suits you to remember the one questionable decision that went against Arsenal on the day. (But don’t worry, Arteta was so proud of his players and how they competed with an injury ravaged Newcastle). You can’t make this stuff up.
Frank talk. We should learn to give honour to whom honour is due. Arteta should always be appreciated for what he is doing for the Club.
Yes Martin Keown , Leandro Trossard present in team does add the danger when we are attacking . He movement is very good and his striking is good too.
We Gunnere must not rely on Odeggard we know how good Martin Oddegard as a captain and absolute gem of a play maker but we must not be a one man Team.
Ali, Trossard is very very clever, his runs and positioning ate very good, something some of our players struggle with. He is THE best finisher in the team. His goals to shots ratio is really high. When he is in the team, he and the team score goals..
I think you are causing a storm in a tea cup.
Most fans on this site have in diverse ways expressed their recognition of Trossard’s impact in our team as o the extent of calling for him to be started.
I therefore see no need for your comment bro.
***Trossard’s impact in our team to the extent of
Not one mention in our 2 goal hero, in peoples summing up after the game. He doesn’t get anywhere near the recognition he deserves. There are a small few who do but most don’t.
I get your point
It’s a very good buy indeed Trossard but he needs to be more careful and focus.He is a player that I like, Gabriel Jesus gave away the win against man City last Sunday losing focus,he gave away the corner that make city equalizer.
He must be starting every game,than even Martinelli&kai
I love Arsenal football team, nasty stuff can’t be said about this team but they keep playing and getting positive results 🤟🏽
Trossard has provided goals – and keeps providing them – for Arsenal at key times. Like Keown, I’m glad we have him.
Won’t it be time next summer to seriously think about parting ways with a player who, unfortunately doesn’t provide as much – Jesus?
He earns a reported three times what Trossard does. Surely, Trossard should be better rewarded for his continuing contribution and for Jesus to go.
Some football fans talk about things that they know how to do even if they are placed in that position. Please leave Ateta along let him do what he was hired to do
Been attending AFC games since I was an eight-year-old and am a third generation season ticket holder. My father, when he was alive always had his opinion just like my son now where we never always agreed, just like those fanatics I sit near every home game, all who pay to attend. I most certainly don’t always agree in my circle but respect their right to express them. In my memory Wenger, Graham and Mee brought us success which means Arteta has a mammoth task in front of him particularly given the money he and Edu have spent thus we have a right to expect success and more importantly air our views.
Very true!!!!
