Arsenal appear to be a well-oiled machine under Mikel Arteta as the team continue to produce outstanding results with remarkable efficiency.
In the most recent of those, Bayern Munich’s perfect season was ended when the Gunners defeated them 3-1 at the Emirates Stadium.
Even with Arsenal’s injury problems, it is difficult to compare the way the team is assembled across Europe such that one player may take the place of another and have an influence.
This is the result of years of careful planning by the recruiting team and coaching staff, creating a side that can compete in all competitions.

Keown Claims Zubimendi Helps Unlock Arsenal
But according to Martin Keown, Martin Zubimendi is the latest member to help unlock the rest of the team as well as Declan Rice.
According to Football London, while speaking on TNT Sports after Arsenal’s win over Bayern Munich, Keown said to Rice: “Declan, just talk to me about Zubimendi, because I was saying there that you were running free in that game.
“Galloping all over the pitch, it was just like someone has lifted the chains off you.
“Is it Zubimendi that is giving you that licence to? Because it was just there.”
