Guendouzi in action

Few had heard of Guendouzi before he joined Arsenal, and for a player who was in the French Ligue 2, he has done very well to face both City and Chelsea.

He brings a mix of good passing, tackling, and positional sense, and represents the kind of new midfield balance that Arsenal has been lacking over several seasons.

Without any melodrama, he is reminiscent of Vieira in how he plays, in that he provides a strong midfield presence. It's apparent that this is something the club has lacked in recent seasons, and given his youth, Guendouzi can be a prospect for years to come at Arsenal.

Emery, and the football executive team of Mislintat, Sanllehi, and Fahmy, all require kudos in spotting his talent.
