“At this point no player in the world currently is more clutch” - Fans react to display from Arsenal star in late 4-2 win over Leicester

Fans were impressed with Leandro Trossard after Arsenal secured a dramatic 4-2 win over Leicester City in a Premier League clash at the Emirates on Saturday, September 28. Trossard played a key role, delivering a stellar performance that left fans in awe, as they dubbed him clutch following his decisive contributions.

After an initial spell of dominance, the Gunners took the lead through Gabriel Martinelli (20'), who ended his 19-game goal drought with a well-placed strike. Trossard then doubled Arsenal's advantage just before half-time, capitalizing on Martinelli's assist.

However, Leicester clawed their way back into the game, with James Justin (47', 63') scoring twice, first with a deflected header and then a stunning side-footed volley. The Emirates crowd watched in disbelief as the Foxes appeared on course to steal a point.

However, the London giants regained control in stoppage time. Trossard's poke forced a deflected goal off Wilfried Ndidi, restoring Arsenal’s lead in the fourth minute of stoppage time. Five minutes later, Kai Havertz sealed the win with a fourth goal.

Trossard, who scored a couple of crucial goals for the Gunners last season, sparked an outpouring of praise on social media with his performance. Fans lauded his composure in crucial moments, with one supporter claiming:

"At this point, no player in the world currently is more clutch than Leandro Trossard."

Another Arsenal supporter expressed,

"Kai Havertz can never be My Front Man even if He Scores 30 Goals this Season, Leandro Trossard is Arsenal Best Player Forward."

Another posted:

"Thank you Leandro Trossard for changing my life."

One elated supporter wrote:

"LEANDRO TROSSARD I HAVE YOUR BABIES."

Manchester City drop points against Newcastle United to hand major boost to Arsenal's title race

Earlier in the day, Manchester City were held to a 1-1 draw by Newcastle United at St. James' Park. They dropped crucial points for the second straight week in the Premier League after a 2-2 draw against Arsenal last week. The result provides a major boost to the Gunners' title race ambitions. They are now level on points with the defending champions, who sit atop the table, with 14 points from six matches.

City opened the scoring in the 35th minute when Josko Gvardiol expertly finished off a Jack Grealish pass, turning past Dan Burn to find the bottom corner. However, Newcastle responded in the 58th minute after Anthony Gordon won and converted a penalty following a foul by goalkeeper Ederson.

The game, marked by eight yellow cards, saw City struggle to impose their usual rhythm. The absence of key midfielders Kevin De Bruyne and Rodri left them vulnerable, while top scorer Erling Haaland was unable to find the net. Newcastle, led by Gordon in attack due to Alexander Isak's injury, posed a persistent threat on the counter.

Bernardo Silva nearly snatched a late winner for City, but Nick Pope's reflex save denied him in stoppage time. The draw means Mikel Arteta's are now behind the Cityzens only on goal difference.
