Graphic from Mark Carey showing how Arsenal have fared with headed goals over the past 10 season

Regularly ranked in the PL's top five in the late Arsene Wenger years, lost their dominance under Unai Emery and have been on a steady incline since Mikel Arteta took charge

A really good first leg between #BAYRMA last night.

For Bayern, their tactical tweak at half-time proved to be crucial to them getting their two goals in quick succession.

Good from Robertson to tuck inside there to isolate Diaz 1v1 against Coufal.

Meant he wasn’t picked up, allowing Diaz to drive inside before he was found for a rare finish in the box 🥅

Deal agreed with #LFC and Arne Slot.

Interesting to look at what he changed at Feyenoord after he joined in 2021-22. Notable uptick off the ball, higher intensity, higher line.

On the ball, greater directness and more considered build-up from the back.

Arne Slot to #LFC ?

Often sets up with a 4-2-3-1 in possession, using a midfield double pivot to progress centrally through the first line of pressure. An aggressive, dominant style that is suited to Liverpool’s current crop.
