Gary Neville says that Arsenal’s signature is “much better” than he imagined
Gary Neville said one of Arsenal’s summer signatures was “much better” than he imagined, after taking an impressive start for the Premier League season.
Neville left impressed after Arsenal Thrash Nottingham Forest
The Gunners sent a message with a 3-0 victory against Nottingham Forest on Saturday, with Martin Zubimenddi and Viktor Gyokerres by going on the match sheet, while his compatriot signing Ebelechi Eze caught his first decisive pass since his arrival as Crystal Palace.
Speaking after the match, Mikel Arteta praised the impact that his summer signatures made against delicate trees, saying: “The new ones that started, five for them today, really impressed by them. I think you can feel and feel that there are new relationships that flourish there that will give us different things.”
Zubimenddi made the headlines, after finding the back of the net twice, on each side of the third goal of Viktor Gyokerres of the season, the Spaniard pulling in particular a volley at home just outside.
However, objectives and assists are not the only measures on which players must be judged, Neville taking the time to rent Noni Madueke, who has not yet left the brand in an arsenal shirt.
Sky Sports Pundit said: “Madueke is much better than I imagined and thought it would be. And certainly much better than arsenal fans thought it.
“A few races he did for England on Tuesday evening were a different level, they are races, I thought,” ooh “. These are races … Arjen Robben used to do these shopping against me.
“His movement and the things he does are very, very good, and I’m talking about the point of view of a great-back that plays against.”
Madueke deserves applause after a fantastic performance
While the winger could not open his account, he undoubtedly put a fantastic performance against Forest, winning more duels than any other player on the field and providing a certain number of important attacks of attack.

Neville is not the only person to have been very impressed by the summer signature screen of 52 million pounds sterling, with Arteta adding: “Noni – I thought he was exceptional. We played a before three that had never played [together] Before. Overall, I am very happy. “”
Last season, Arteta was very short of options in the attack zones sometimes, Gabriel Jesus, Kai Havertz and Bukayo Saka spending all time on the sidelines, which undoubtedly made a major difference in the race for the title of Premier League.
The problem this season, however, is much more pleasant to have, because Arteta can find it difficult to integrate all its attackers into the side, since Saka should return later this month.
