'It’s about coach trusting players': Cesc highlights Arteta's tactics that makes Arsenal fun to watch

Cesc Fabregas has picked Arsenal alongside Man City and Brighton as Premier League teams that are the biggest entertainers this season.

"Arsenal use that 3-1-3-3 formation - which is six players in front of the ball," the Spaniard told the Mirror.

"It’s about the coach trusting their defenders to be quicker, faster and recover the ball. Then they can play a little bit more attacking football.

"But you could see the difference when [William] Saliba was playing and got injured [last season]. Mikel will tell you himself that it’s not the same way they can play."

Arsenal are a bit less-scoring team this season compared to the 2022/23 campaign. After 8 Premier League games, they have netted 16 times (20 by that time last season).
