Nevertheless, his coach Mikel Arteta remains very happy with his work as he confided at a press conference: “Over the past twelve months, he has shown great consistency. Obviously there’s a lot of competition at his position, but that’s how it is.”
“We have to raise the level, and if he reaches that level, he will play”once again proclaimed the Spaniard who “appreciate it very much” Trossard for his versatility, which can sometimes backfire, becoming a luxury joker.

Another point appreciated by Arteta: his character. “Leo is obviously a little grumpy, but I like that because he’s very competitive. During training sessions he is always concerned about refereeing decisions because he wants to win. And that’s what I like. He always wants to be the best, and when he’s not, he’s not happy. That’s what motivates him, and that’s why when he gets on the pitch, he can have an impact. He has this desire and this hunger to show what he is capable of.”
