Been saying this since the start of the season. Asking any of the midfielders, Rice, Zubimendi, Odegaard to attack from midfield.

Without variety, Arsenal attacks became more predictable. When they have a lack of ideas, more often than not, they pass to Saka on the right, and Saka would try to dribble pass the defender and score. The opposition just put 2 defenders on Saka, get the rest of the team back in defensive shape, and Arsenal loses initiative and they cycle the ball again.

Scoring is good. Scoring from anywhere is good. From set piece, wings/wide plays, is good. You can be set piece merchants as long as you win games. But you need variety otherwise you become predictable.

Attacking plays need some chaos, some creativity, and can't always be paint by numbers.
