It may not even be July, but Arsenal Feel as they have lagged behind in the transfer window.
Manchester City has already signed an incredible handful of players, including Ryan Cherkey and Tijjani rejoiceManchester United picked up Matheus Cunha, and Chelsea obtained Liam Delap through the door at the beginning of the month.
However, the most significant transfer to be completed by a rival and the most worrying for the artillerymen ‘ Premier league Prospects next season, was the acquisition of Liverpool of Florian Wirtz.
The German international has been the speech of the window so far, and it seems that it could be a superstar for the Reds.
With the level of excitement that followed Wirtz in Liverpool and the huge costs of 116.5 million pounds sterling that it took to get him out of Bayer Leverkusen, there is a expectation of fans and rivals that the German will go next season.
In this spirit, how do its figures of this season accumulate against some of the most important attackers in the league?
Well, given the amount of money it cost the Reds, it is not surprising that none of the best circles of attack on the Premier League was more productive than the 22 -year -old in all the competitions last year.

In its 45 appearances, the former Leverkusen gem produces 31 Involvement of objectiveswhich comes out at an average of 0.68 per match, and the only player to approach this was Bruno Fernandes, whose 38 Objective involvement in 57 The appearances reached an average of 0.66 per match.
Reporting to Arsenal, the sad reality is that the team captain and previously Mercurial Martin Odegaard did not approach being as productive as the man of the moment.
In fact, the Norwegian chief of the Gunners could only mark Six goals and provide 12 assists In 45 appearances this season, which comes out of a rather disappointing average of 0.40 objective of involvement per game.
In short, the Maestro in the midfield of the North Londoners does not seem to be up to the effectiveness of the new Liverpool superstar.
However, it is not all the misfortune and sadness, because Mikel Arteta has his own talent as monsters in the Emirates, someone who is worth millions more than Wirtz.
Although Arsenal has an abundance of talents, it should not be a surprise that there are not many players who are worth more than the monstrous costs that Wirtz cost Liverpool.
However, one of those players is worth more is, of course, the simple sensational Bukayo of.
According to at the football observatory CIESThe Hale End icon is up to 157.3 million euros, which converted to around 135 million pounds sterling, or £ 18.5 more than the price of the Liverpool star.
Now, there will undoubtedly be some people who look at such a price and waste, but if we look at how the pair has stacked each other this season, it could be easier to see where the CIES come from.
For example, despite the disappearance of more than three months of action, the “world class” winger, As nicknamed by Rio Ferdinandwas able to mark 12 objectives and provide 14 assists In just 37 appearances, which comes out on average 0.70 target of involvement per game – 0.02 better than German.
In addition, when we look under the hood of their respective underlying figures, the 23-year-old international comes out once again.
For example, he produces a higher figure of expected non-penalty goals, while playing more key passes and making more plated, which only demonstrates the way he assumes the responsibility of all areas of the game.

In the end, it is this capacity to have a disproportionate impact on the attacking side of the game while putting the dirty work while being relatively young who makes Saka so precious, and if he continues on his current trajectory, we are not sure that the evaluation of Wirtz will never catch up.
