How can a professional player miss that chance, despite having won? He’s not happy right now. A BBC pundit noticed an Arsenal player with his hands on his head following a first-half mistake.

In Sunday’s Premier League match against West Ham, Michael Brown criticized Leandro Trossard’s missed opportunity for Arsenal early in the game. With Liverpool and Manchester City securing wins the previous day, Arsenal desperately needed a victory. Trossard had a clear chance to score, receiving a precise cross from Bukayo Saka in the first half.

Despite being in a prime position in the six-yard area, Trossard’s header lacked accuracy and failed to challenge West Ham’s goalkeeper, Alphonse Areola. Brown, speaking on BBC Radio Five Live, expressed astonishment at Trossard’s inability to capitalize on the chance.

The game saw Arsenal eventually take the lead, with Trossard himself redeeming his earlier miss by scoring one of the four goals before halftime. This turnaround eased the concerns of Arsenal fans, who have been worried about the team’s lack of a clinical finisher throughout the season.

Despite Trossard’s initial disappointment, his goal contributed to Arsenal’s decisive victory, highlighting the team’s ability to capitalize on opportunities and alleviate pressure when necessary. This match showcased Arsenal’s potential when they find their rhythm in front of goal, a quality that will be crucial as they strive for success in future fixtures.
