EPL: Arteta Confirms Arsenal’s Strategy to Counter Cole Palmer Threat

Arsenal manager, Mikel Arteta, has revealed that his team is set to implement a strategic plan to handle Chelsea’s in-form attacker, Cole Palmer, when they face off at Stamford Bridge on Sunday in the Premier League.

The Gunners enter this London derby eager to rebound from two consecutive losses—one in the Premier League against Newcastle and another in the Champions League against Inter Milan. With their title hopes in mind, Arsenal is keenly aware of the need to avoid further points loss this weekend.

Palmer, who has been instrumental in Chelsea’s recent games, boasts an impressive record of seven goals and five assists in just 10 Premier League appearances this season, making him a formidable opponent for any team.

Addressing reporters, Arteta acknowledged the challenge Palmer poses, saying, “That’s a question that all the managers in the league have had, and he’s still managed to impact games. We will have a plan for Cole and all their threats, and to exploit their weaknesses.”

The Gunners will need to be at their tactical best as they seek a return to winning ways and keep their title ambitions alive.
