“I’m a Man United Legend but please give these two Arsenal stars credit for their wonderful performance yesterday”- Man United Legend Paul Scholes gave his flowers to two Arsenal stars after a very impressive performance yesterday- Not Havertz and not G.Jesus
“I’m honored to be a Man United Legend, but it’s crucial to acknowledge the outstanding performance of two Arsenal stars in their recent triumph. Yesterday, I witnessed something truly remarkable from Mikel Arteta’s Arsenal as they reclaimed their spot at the summit of the Premier League after a commanding 2-0 victory over Brighton and Hove Albion.
Reflecting on the game at the Emirates last season, where Arsenal’s title hopes were dashed, this redemption is nothing short of impressive. Among the standout players who caught my attention were Declan Rice and Martin Odegaard. In a recent interview with Premier League Productions on December 17, 2023, at 4:00 pm, I expressed my admiration for these two players who, despite not scoring or providing assists, dictated the flow of the game from the midfield.
While some critics suggested that Arsenal’s captain had a slow start to the campaign, recent matches indicate a resurgence in form. As the fixtures pile up in this hectic period, Arsenal seems to be finding their rhythm at just the right time. The dynamic duo of Rice and Odegaard played a pivotal role in securing the goals that the game rightfully deserved.
In Scholes’ own words, ‘Give Arsenal credit, they were brilliant.’ He specifically commended Declan Rice for his stellar performance in the midfield and highlighted Martin Odegaard’s brilliance. Scholes acknowledged that the goals Arsenal scored were a fitting reward for their exceptional display on the field.
Looking ahead, Arsenal faces a significant challenge with a trip to Anfield. Memories of dropped points against Liverpool last season still linger, marking the beginning of a title collapse. However, the timing of this encounter provides a different narrative, occurring earlier in the season, meaning a potential loss won’t cut as deep.
As Manchester City grapples with points drops and navigates the Club World Cup in Saudi Arabia, both Liverpool and Arsenal have a golden opportunity to make a statement in the upcoming weekend. The league landscape is dynamic, and the outcome of these crucial matches could shape the narrative for the rest of the season.”
