Arsenal’s outstanding defense this season has been the subject of much discussion.
Many of their defenders have been given the credit they deserve, and the Gunners have been strong at the back.
William Saliba is often in the news, Jurrien Timber has been praised profusely, and Riccardo Calafiori has been praised since his arrival.
Another crucial member of Arsenal’s defense, Gabriel Magalhaes, occasionally receives less recognition than his contemporaries.
Ben White has been gushing about Gabriel in an interview with Amazon, saying that although William Saliba receives the majority of the attention, Magalhaes is also an incredible talent.
Ben White’s commendations Magalhaes, Gabriel
White talked on his opinion of Gabriel.
The Brazilian is frightening from set pieces, according to the defense, and his threat from those dead-ball situations is incredible.
“Gabi, Saliba has been amazing, but I believe he has taken a lot of the spotlight. You kind of know you’re going to score every time you get a corner because of his frightening danger in the box. A goal is unquestionably scored if the ball is in a safe place, which is fantastic,” White stated.
Gabriel is superior to Saliba, according to Darren Bent.
While most people agree that Saliba receives more attention than Gabriel, not everyone shares White’s opinion.
In fact, Gabriel is superior to Saliba, according to Darren Bent.Two center-halves. They’ve let up two goals this season, Virgil van Dijk, and I’ve gone Gabriel,” Bent remarked on talkSPORT, adding the Brazilian to his current Team of the Season.
“And the reason I chose Gabriel over Saliba is because of the goals and the plays that were set.”
Although there is much more to being a center-back than just scoring goals, Gabriel’s attacking contributions have undoubtedly been crucial to Arsenal’s success this year.
Gabriel’s attacking performance might mean the difference between winning the league and coming second for the third consecutive year, but Arsenal can’t rely too heavily on his goal-scoring efforts.
“He is on my fantasy team, so I’m hoping he’ll be healthy, as are all Gunners supporters.”Martin Odegaard is still out, and Kai Havertz and Gabriel Martinelli are both questionable due to injuries.
But even without some of their finest offensive players, we know the Gunners can still produce results.
“They have a strong defense, which explains their tendency to always find a way to win, but I wouldn’t be shocked if they lost this time.
Regardless of who they play against, Bournemouth consistently generates opportunities. The problem with the Cherries has been that they haven’t always seized those chances. However, things might be different on Saturday.
