Tuchel harshly criticized Arsenal s two England internationals: Is this a red flag for Emery?

England national team beat Andorra 2-0, and coach Thomas Tuchel made a sharp assessment. Despite his team's successful three-pointer, the manager seems to be unhappy with the personal performance of some players.

Tuchel specially named two players, Arsenal, Ebridge Eze and Noni Maduk, believing that their performance did not meet the expected standards. This criticism is eye-catching, as the two players have just become part of Arsenal's big investment in the summer transfer window.

Tuchel's comments raise new questions among the observers. How Mikel Arteta maximizes the use of Eze and Marduk’s contributions at Arsenal, considering that the two have not yet shown a compelling performance in the England national team. Tuchel's criticism of Eze and Maduk After the match, Tuchel frankly stated that Eze has not shown his best abilities yet.

"Maybe not in shape today, ranked 10th. He has very good training, but has some difficulties in decision making," he said.

Tuchel also evaluated the performance of right winger Marduk, who fully played on the right side of the offensive line. According to the German coach, "Marduk's final pass was not sharp enough."

England did poorly in creating opportunities and failed to have a significant impact on offensive opportunities. Despite England's victory, this assessment by Tuchel became a special focus.

Eze played as an attacking midfielder in the 78th minute of the game and was replaced until the final whistle sounded, while Marduk persisted until the end of the game.

Arsenal's ideal Eze position

These criticisms are becoming increasingly relevant under the current status of the club level. Ebridge Eze is used to having free play from the left or behind the striker.

But at Arsenal, he may have different responsibilities. Ebridge Eze usually instructs the left winger to stay in a wide area, which can limit Eze's space to move towards the middle.

Experimenting this position will determine how effective it is to adapt in Arsenal game philosophy. With the support of left backs like Ricardo Carafrini, Eze may gain more freedom in the midfield area to create opportunities.

Determining the right position will be a key factor in its performance throughout the season.

Maduek competes with the lineup

Maduek has the ability to play in multiple positions in the forward line. However, since joining Arsenal, he has been used more on the left side, and his main role at Chelsea is the right winger.

Eze's arrival has made internal competition more intense.

Marduk is expected to be only a rotation option and may rotate at the winger position on both sides according to tactical needs.

In this case, it is difficult for him to get a regular opportunity to play. If he cannot find a stable game pace as soon as possible, his chances of entering the main lineup throughout the season may become smaller and smaller.
