Arsenal Draws Again, Struggles Continue

Arsenal's recent form has been disappointing, as they failed to capitalize on opportunities to close the gap to league leaders Liverpool, drawing 1-1 with Fulham and then 0-0 against Everton. Mikel Arteta's side dominated possession but struggled to create scoring chances, with Bukayo Saka emerging as a standout player despite the team's overall lack of threat. Criticism has been directed at underperforming players like Martin Ødegaard and Gabriel Martinelli, with calls for Arteta to make bold changes to the lineup, such as dropping Martinelli for the upcoming match against Crystal Palace. Saka, in contrast, has been exceptional this season, recording nine goals and twelve assists, prompting discussions about potentially changing his position to maximize his impact. Arteta remains open to adjustments that could further enhance Saka's contributions, likening his potential to legends like Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Overall, Arsenal's inconsistent performances continue to hinder their title challenge, leaving them six points behind Liverpool with a game in hand.
