Anyways, my idea is that instead of playing Gyokeres in the center and Martinelli in the left, Arteta should play Gyokeres in the left wing and Havertz as the center forward. I will explain my reasons below.

Havertz is not clinical in the box, but very good at holding the ball and laying it out to others and dropping back to create space for others. I heard that Gyokeres likes to move from left to center of the box. So the above approach plays to both players strength. Against long ball teams, Havertz wins the ball in the air against opposition CBs and lays it off to Gyokeres who has moved in to the space in the box now vacated by Havertz, with Lewis Skelly taking up the space on the left flank vacated by Gyokeres.

I think this would create lots of chances on the left flank which would be as unpredictable as the right flank trio of Saka, Ben White and Odegard.

If Arteta adopts this, I’m sure it would be a big success.
