5 Arsenal players to watch out for in the 2018-19 Premier League season

#2 Henrikh Mkhitaryan

Henrikh Mkhitaryan

The Armenian sensation seems to be shaping up quite well at Arsenal after his ordinary outings with Manchester United. Mkhitaryan made his debut for Arsenal this year in February, providing 3 assists against Everton.

Though he could score only 2 goals in 11 games for Arsenal, the 29-year-old has looked at ease since his arrival at Arsenal, playing his natural attacking game. The midfielder’s deceptive moves, combined with his ability to round up the opposition’s defense with his clever passes, have looked spot on.

The midfielder can also play as a second striker and looks quite organized while creating chances for his teammates with his inventive moves. The former Manchester United player adds a lot of width in the Arsenal midfield because of his ability to arrive inside the box whenever there is a goal-scoring opportunity.

Mkhitaryan didn’t enjoy Jose Mourinho’s confidence while playing under him for Manchester United, but Unai Emery had recently stated that Mkhitaryan will surely be Arsenal’s go-to man during pressure situations.
