On Arteta & Arsenal were the best team in the Champions League this season..

I looked at the underlying Statsbomb data comparing Arsenal with Liverpool, PSG and Barcelona in Champions League only.

PSG & Liverpool show the best balance between attack and defence.

In the last 6 games we’ve been below average to poor in 4 of those first halves (could argue 5 depending on your view v EVE)

centre backs in particular had a very poor week

Those half time scores:

PSG 0-0 (somehow!)

Southampton 0-1

PSG 0-1

Newcastle 0-1

Everton 0-0

Fulham 1-3

Ryan Gravenberch was back to something more like his pre Christmas form for me (break done him good)

Watching it back for Review reinforced this

Passes the eyes & data test too ⬇️ StatsZone

His movement & reading of the game in & out of possession was top class

Huge influence 45-60
