Arsenal 3-2 Newcastle United

• Target: Merino, Pena Odegarard | Elanga, J Murphy
• Assist: Havertz x2, dowman | Tonali, Miley

Gyoker in the pen?

After a 3-2 Sunday victory over Newcastle, Arsenal Manager Mikel Arteta hinted that the new signing Viktor can replace Bukayo from (£ 10.0 million) with punishment.

Saka has become the first choice in the last seasons, but sometimes letting others go to take one.

He also took the last kick in 2024/25 in the UEFA Champions League in April, but was not answered.

Meanwhile, Gyokeres, who was paraded on the field shortly before kick-off, managed to convert all 19 penalties he took while playing for CP sports last season, highlighting his abilities of 12 yards.

“Well, I’m sure he will come in if they allow him to do it, because as you say he is very consistent and he scored a lot of goals, but we have several other penalties, which are really good too. So, they will finish it alone and if not, I will intervene the right time!” – Mikel Arteta about the ability of Viktor Gyokeres from the penalty site

The future of sobs

Another major conversation point in Asia is Alexander Isaac (£ 10.5 million), which is absent from Newcastle’s travel forces in the middle of the transfers and thigh injuries reported.

Speaking before Sunday friendly, Eddie Howe said:

“Of course, there are things that happen behind the scenes. He will realize he is in the news every day and I am sure it’s not easy for anyone in that situation. Conversations that occur with Alex and the club, or Alex and myself, will remain personal for clear reasons.

“We have indeed shared a good relationship. He has been extraordinary for us since he joined. He was very popular in the dressing room. We would be happy he continued his journey in Newcastle. Although, whatever happened must be right for Newcastle. Hopefully he will soon return and play with black and white shirts. That’s what we all want to see.

“He first mentioned his thigh before the Celtic match. We thought it would be a very minimal injury, nothing was too serious. I thought on Monday after the Celtic match, he entered to practice very early and he did not feel right.” – Eddie Howe in Alexander sob

In sobs, William Osula (£ 5.5 million) leads the line and is the only outfield player who was not replaced in the first round, showing how Threadbare Newcastle is in this position now.

He generally did it very well too, showing off headers from the far pole.

Howe then described Osula’s performance as “much better” than against Celtic, highlighting his work ethic.

Dowman Impressive / Assist Havertz

Martin Zubimendi (£ 5.5 million) and young people Max Dowman You could say the player stands out for Arsenal.

Dowman grabbed an extraordinary appearance by thinning through it Joelinton (£ 6.0 million) in the right touch line, drove to the area and descended under the challenge of Brazil to win the penalty.

The spot kick was successfully converted by Martin Odegaard (£ 8.0 million) after Saka was replaced.

In particular, Norway recorded a total of four shots, most of the players.

Kai Havertz (£ 7.5 million), meanwhile, was involved in both Arsenal’s open goals, first to help Mikel Merino (£ 6.0 million) neatly in the box, before the low seductive cross was destroyed into his own goal by the Newcastle defender Alex Murphy (£ 4.0 million).

Sun + Murphy’s Purpose

The Magpies previously led through blisters Anthony Luna Effort (£ 7.0 million).

The Sweden international lasted for 45 minutes in his full debut before being replaced by Jacob Murphy (6.5m).

Murphy also found a net, flatten it with low shots.

As a result, Howe now has a choice on the right wing, because both players function as the threat of the best attack of their team in each round.

At another place, Riccardo Calafuri (£ 5.5 million) and Sven Botman (£ 5.0 million) Both must come with injury.

“Yes, he said that he felt a little tweaking, so I didn’t know how big it was but hopefully not.” – Mikel Arteta at Riccardo Calaforiori

“I didn’t see him struggling. He came and said his groin was tight. The fingers crossed him well.” – Eddie Howe on Sven Botman
