Pardubice Overview

Bukayo Saka has registered just 13 Premier League goals for Arsenal across the last two campaigns, with ex-England winger Chris Waddle telling GOAL where the Gunners forward needs to improve - with Mohamed Salah being held up as inspiration. There has never been any doubting Saka’s creative instincts, but his game could be taken to another level if end product were to be delivered in greater numbers.

Arsenal forward Noni Madueke became the target of light-hearted mockery online after squandering a glaring open-goal opportunity during England's final public warm-up match. Despite his error, Thomas Tuchel's clinical side coasted to a dominant 3-0 victory over Costa Rica in Orlando to extend their impressive winning streak.

Arsenal legend Paul Merson has floated a sensational transfer theory, suggesting that Mikel Arteta may be weighing up the shock sale of captain Martin Odegaard this summer. Despite the Norwegian leading the Gunners to their first Premier League title in over two decades last season, concerns over his recent impact and injury record have led to questions regarding his long-term future in North London.

Aston Villa sensation Morgan Rogers has addressed the growing speculation linking him with a blockbuster move to Arsenal. The 23-year-old, currently preparing for the 2026 World Cup in Florida, insisted that while the "noise" is impossible to ignore, his focus remains firmly on chasing global glory with England and proving he can thrive alongside Jude Bellingham.
