Slot has no excuses as Burnley’s full backs threaten Arsenal
Arne Slot has no excuses.
Fulham and Palace are stretched, and Arsenal should be wary of Burnley’s full backs.
Burnley’s Kyle Walker and Quilindschy Hartman form one of the league’s best full back partnerships this season.
They are disciplined at the back and dangerous going forward.
Walker has long been regarded as a top right back in world football.
Hartman, a Dutch recruit, has settled quickly after promotion.
Hartman must marshal Bukayo Saka when Arsenal attack down Burnley’s left flank.
Moreover, he must blunt Eberechi Eze when required.
Hartman has supplied regular assists, making him a real asset to Burnley.
Two crosses produced Zian Flemming’s goals against Wolves.
Hartman now has four assists in nine league appearances.
Arsenal should adjust to Burnley’s pace and precision on the flanks.
TLDR
- Burnley’s full back duo Walker and Hartman pose a genuine threat.
- Hartman has four assists in nine league games, including key crosses for Flemming.
- Arsenal must plan to counter Burnley’s width and pace on the flanks.
