Statistically, which team from the past 5–10 years is most comparable to this Arsenal side? What kind of team is best suited to overcome (outplay) Arsenal?
I guess my hot take is that I'm LESS optimistic about Ethan's development as a 10 than basically every other arsenal fan. I see that he has a lot of impressive qualities (great ball carrier, very secure on the ball, good in tight spaces, great shooter and great at getting shots for himself) but I can't help but notice that he doesn't create that many chances for an AM and he's not the most impressive passer (though he has a really nice cross in him). I wonder if that will prevent him from developing into a truly world-class AM, and if he might end like Smith-Rowe (a very good player with lots of abilities who maybe lacks the full package to be truly elite in the AM role). I don't know, maybe he can build a creative bag over time, but at the very least I really don't understand the people who say he's ready to regularly start in the PL/CL.

Is Big Vik under or over preforming versus other new or any striker this season?
Hot Take.
Madueke if Fit, Will force at last, to release Bukayo off the Right Wing to every angle on the attack front.
