“They’re not a threat to us in anyway because they have FOUR things Mikel Arteta is yet to put to order, untill then, NO Premier League title for Arsenal”- Man City Belgian Skipper Kevin De Bruyne mention FOUR shocking reasons why Arsenal won’t smell the PL trophy anytime soon.

Alan Shearer recently shared his thoughts on Ivan Toney, a football player Arsenal is eyeing for a potential signing. Shearer expressed his admiration for Toney’s performance, particularly after Arsenal’s much-needed improvement and victory. The player, associated with Brentford, caught Shearer’s attention with his skills on the field.

Arsenal, grappling with goal-scoring challenges, experienced a positive boost from a rejuvenating winter training camp in Dubai. The collaboration between Gabriel Magalhaes and Nicolas Jover played a pivotal role in Arsenal’s enhanced performance, addressing their confidence issues in front of the goal.

The Gunners have been keen on capitalizing on set piece situations, and Ivan Toney emerged as a transfer target after showcasing his prowess in Brentford’s recent win against Nottingham Forest. Toney’s standout performance, marked by an opening goal, left a lasting impression on Shearer, who commended not only his goal-scoring prowess but also his overall contribution.

Shearer, speaking on BBC’s Match of the Day, lauded Toney’s integral role in Brentford’s success, emphasizing his versatility in moving out wide and influencing the team’s dynamics. Toney’s ability to link up plays and his impact beyond scoring goals stood out in Shearer’s assessment.

The former footballer praised Toney’s goal as a “fantastic strike” and highlighted his playmaking skills, acknowledging a “wonderful ball” delivered for Keane Lewis-Potter. Contrary to the perception of Toney as an in-the-box goal-scorer, Shearer emphasized his excellence in linking up plays and holding the ball.

Despite the prevailing notion that Toney is primarily a finisher, Shearer argued against this, and even Ian Wright expressed surprise at one of Arteta’s decisions during the match. In conclusion, despite Arsenal’s recent goal-filled performance, Toney continues to be a promising target for the team. Mikel Arteta, Arsenal’s manager, is likely to agree with Shearer’s positive assessment, challenging the perception that Toney is solely an in-the-box scorer.
