There was a slightly troubling moment between Arsenal’s Wingan Noni Maduce and Gunners’ legendary Martin Keeun while talking after today’s victory at Nottingham Forest.
Arsenal held a fantastic display with a 3-0 defeat for Forest at Emirates Stadium, and it really caught the eye as Madueke has continued a strong start since joining from Chelsea in the summer.
When the story of the contract first appeared, not the most popular signature, and Keun admitted to his face that he didn’t even know him either.
Keown told Maduke that he felt a bit “selfish” in his playing style at Chelsea, so take a look below.
Maduke could possibly feel a bit surprised to hear the comment from Keown, and he laughed as the presenter tried to break the tension by saying he was allowed to tell the critics that he was “talking trash.”
Noni Maduke proves critics wrong at Arsenal
Madueke was an amazing Arsenal signature this summer, but perhaps we’re now getting an idea of why Mikel Arteta wanted him.
The 23-year-old was a bit of a contradiction at Chelsea, but he’s now really good at his difficult role of filling in for injured AFC star Bukayo Saka.
In recent years, given how influential Saka has for Arsenal, few players have been able to step up as Madue has.
Arsenal has deep strength in depth after Madueke’s signature
Arsenal fans are pleased with how Madueke is doing and they hope he can maintain this after such a strong start.
Madueke, who can play on the right or left, will be a great help to Arsenal this season as he needs plenty of coverage, judging from recent injuries issues.
Saka has appeared as well as other important players like Kai Herberts, William Saliba and Gabriel Jesus, but Martin Odegard went out to the forest match.
