All of Belgium put on Leandro Trossard, The Last of Us: “He can make the difference at any time”

Better represented than Brazil, Germany or Argentina two years ago, Belgium is found today with fewer semi-finalists than Poland (5) or Morocco (2). And as much as “second zone” countries such as Georgia, Albania, Armenia, Iran, Ghana or Uruguay. The fault of the early eliminations of Real Madrid or Manchester City, but also at this transition period between the end of the Golden Generation and the advent of the news which has not (yet) invested all the biggest European clubs.

Fortunately, Leandro Trossard seems sufficiently in good shape to assume this responsibility alone. Since the beginning of April and his repositioning in the axis following the returns of Saka and Martinelli, the Red Devil has marked four times in the Premier League. “”He was a very regular player for us, whether as a central attack, winger, holder or replacement, and this is what we expect from a player. He is always ready, always in good shape, and he can make the difference at any time, that’s the best “rejoiced Mikel Arteta last week.

The 30-year-old Belgian has already been decisive against PSG, with a perfect center on the head of Kai Havertz during the League phase match last October (2-0). “Everyone is motivatedannounced Trossard. With the public behind us, the atmosphere must be electric and they will push us forward. We want to do the same thing as the last time. They were incredible at home against Madrid. If we can repeat this, it would be great. “

Since the return of the Champions League to the Emirates Stadium in 2023, Arsenal has lost none of its eleven home games. With only four goals conceded for twenty-nine registered. Holder or out of the bench (as in front of Real Madrid), Leandro Trossard has proven – with his variety of games, versatility and unpredictability – that he could help the Gunners win their European Paris.

This season, the former Genkois has scored ten goals and gave eight assists. And after a short vacuum at the start of the year, when he had to chain matches without opportunity to rest because of injuries within the team, he seems to have found a second breath at the best time of the season. “As an attacker, that’s what we are and it’s good for everyonehe observed last week. It’s always nice to score and help your team win. I am very confident. But I think everyone must be on the alert and ready to play. There are important matches to come. “
