He has amazing dribbling speed and the ability to manipulate the ball in tight spaces.<\/p>\n<p>In fact, no player in La Liga this season has scored as many penalties as Diaz per 90 minutes, but he ranks within the top 7% of players in his position in terms of chances created per 90 minutes, and within the top 12% in terms of fouls taken. Dauman has a similar trend, especially when it comes to the bottom line metrics.<\/p>\n<p>    So, while the young English talent may ultimately be able to learn a thing or two from the Madrid sensation, signing another attacking midfielder or right-winger would undoubtedly have a negative impact on his game time in the short term.<\/p>\n<p>For now, Arsenal should focus on finding a player who can play on the left.<\/p>\n<div class=\"display-card  article article-card small  no-badge  active-content                      \" data-include-community-rating=\"false\" id=\"arsenal-exploring-khvicha-kvaratskhelia-move-saka-upgrade\" data-nosnippet=\"\">\n<picture><source media=\"(max-width: 480px)\" data-srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/mixcollage-26-mar-2026-10-49-am-2852.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=140&amp;h=98&amp;dpr=2\" srcset=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/mixcollage-26-mar-2026-10-49-am-2852.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=140&amp;h=98&amp;dpr=2\"\/><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"440\" height=\"364\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"bukayosaka arsenal\" data-img-url=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/mixcollage-26-mar-2026-10-49-am-2852.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=182&amp;dpr=2\" src=\"https:\/\/static0.footballfancastimages.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/mixcollage-26-mar-2026-10-49-am-2852.jpg?q=49&amp;fit=crop&amp;w=220&amp;h=182&amp;dpr=2\"\/>\n        <\/picture>\n<p>                    <span data-field=\"label\" class=\"article-card-label\"><label>related<\/label><\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"w-display-card-content regular article-block\">\n<h5 class=\"display-card-title \"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hes_better_than_Saka_Arsenal_considering_signing_78m_rated_superstar\"><\/span>\n<p>\t\t\tHe&#8217;s better than Saka: Arsenal considering signing \u00a378m rated superstar<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n<p class=\"display-card-excerpt\">Bukayo Saka&#8217;s struggles are becoming a growing concern for Arsenal as they aim for immediate promotion.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arsenal&#8217;s 2-0 win over Everton before defeat in the Carabao Cup final had supporters believing: &#8220;Okay, this could be our year.&#8221; Despite leading the Premier League for much of the season, fans are quite pessimistic about their chances this season.
