After scoring four goals in four matches for Sweden during the international break, Viktor Gyokeres again found himself on the Arsenal bench at the start of the match on Saturday. He was later used as a substitute for Kai Havertz, What is happening behind-the-scenes that we do not see between Mikel Arteta and Gyokeres? Why has the Swede’s playing time been so limited?

No one, just like last season, Arteta will continue with a back 3, plus an inverted full back. That full back will either be Zinchenko from the left or Timber from the right. They will come in alongside Rice or Partey when attacking, thus allowing Havertz to join Odegaard in the attacking midfield just like Xhaka did last season.
If i am wrong? feel free to pull me up once the season starts.
You could be right. Not sure if Timber’s skill set will allow him to be that inverted fullback. Time will tell. Thanks for the response.
