Arsenal: Pressing Low

Arsenal this season have undergone a revolution with the arrival of Unai Emery. The Spaniard has brought a new fresh approach at Arsenal. He loves his team playing out from the back and pressing to obtain the ball back.

In theory, his approach is fantastic as the recent results show but on closer analysis, one realises that the Arsenal defence remains very shaky and it can be dangerous to press as the opposition could counter and it could leave the back line in shambles.

Pressing low could be an approach that could work for the Gunners as it would lead to the baiting the opposition forwards into the tight spaces. Then a good long ball would be all this is needed to launch the likes of Aubameyang or Lacazette. Doing this would mean, that they play a low line and involve the keeper to keep possession and create spaces for the forwards.
