Arsenal take on PSV in the Champions League while dealing with a growing injury crisis.
A glance at the Gunners’ attack makes it clear that the team is struggling. With limited options, Mikel Arteta has once again opted to deploy Mikel Merino as a striker—a decision that has left many fans frustrated.
Fan Reactions:
@Giannis_An344: “Merino up front in 2025 😭”
@highburyrise7: “Merino up front in the CL. Enough is enough.”
@1boringname: “Merino 😂😂 Two games without a goal—so why not try him again?”
@Isezobor: “Merino leading the attack again? The best we can hope for is a draw.”
@Ngetich_kE: “Hopefully, Arteta proves us wrong, but playing Merino as a forward makes no sense.”
@salibriel_: “We’re seriously still playing Merino up front 😭”
Why Mikel Merino Isn’t the Solution to Arsenal’s Attacking Woes
Despite Arteta’s persistence, Merino’s deployment as a striker has yet to deliver results. With Arsenal struggling for goals, many believe a tactical rethink is necessary to fix their attacking struggles.
