The Premier League is back in action as Arsenal are gearing up for a thrilling battle with Manchester City. The Arsenal are eager to make winning waves. Apart from the key roles of the likes of Bukayo Shaka, Martinez Odigat and Xavis Hu, wing forward Liandou Duchate will also be in the spotlight. The 29-year-old Belgian international has contributed nearly three goals and an assist in Arsenal's showdown with Manchester City and is expected to be a key player in the game once again.
Looking back at January 2023, Liandou Duchate made the move from Brighton to Arsenal and despite being a first-time arrival, he has already shown his value in key moments on a number of occasions. In the Community Shield last August, he came on after 75 minutes and scored a crucial goal in stoppage time to help Arsenal draw 1-1 with Manchester City. In the end, the Arsenal laughed off the victory through a penalty shootout, with Duchate also contributing a crucial strike. During his time at Brighton, he broke down the City goal twice, proving his threat to the "City" team.
Duchate has scored 11 goals for Arsenal this season, including the winning goal in the second leg of the Round of 16 of the Europa League, which helped the team advance to the next round. In the past, he has mostly featured as a substitute for Gabriel Martinelli. Now that the Brazilian international is injured, Duchate is seeing more playing opportunities. I'm sure he will seize these opportunities and try to prove himself and solidify his place in the team.
