The winger, who is described by his manager as ‘a bit of a moaner’, is likely to relish the chance to show he can be a regular starter
In the manager-praises-own-player stakes, it is not perhaps what might be expected. “Yeah, Leo naturally is a bit of a moaner,” Mikel Arteta says, as he considers Arsenal’s New Year’s Day game at Brentford and how Leandro Trossard stands to have an impact on it.
Everyone at Arsenal knew what Arteta means. We have all got a mate like Trossard, always grumbling and not always about the big things. It is how they are, piping up about this and that; the price of a pint, the weather, how long it takes to get something done, people’s foibles. It does not make you dislike them or love them any less.
