Emmanuel Petit spoke to Compare. bet yesterday. DB: Arsenal have only won once in their last five Premier League matches. What do you think needs to change if they want to get three points when Crystal Palace come to the Emirates this Saturday?

Most of the teams in the Premier League have identified how Arsenal play so they need a plan B now. Most of the teams are more organised defensively against Arsenal now. There are so many names being linked to Arsenal in the press this week. This current group of Arsenal players have enough quality to replicate what they did last season.

But the way Xhaka moved and the way he understood his teammates was completely different. The most important thing is that most of the teams have identified how Arsenal are playing with Martinelli and Saka out wide and now they defend much better.

I still believe that when you meet problems you have to keep doing what you do best on the pitch. A big thing that they need to do, is to rotate their team more, I see big players for Arsenal looking tired physically and mentally. The fact that they also have to play Champions League this season is very interesting, we will have to see how they recoup every couple of days after playing the top teams in Europe and playing in the Premier League.

The Champions League, it requires so much energy mentally and physically, the rotation will be very important.

You see it with Man City, they can win games without their top players and then De Bruyne comes back and scores. This is what is happening right now at Arsenal. DB: You mentioned that teams have figured out Arsenal.

Mikel Arteta is a pretty young manager, do experienced managers normally have a plan B? EP: Plan B always depends on the players you have. What can Arteta even do with this group? He always plays the same first XI on the pitch that have the same style of playing.

Especially when you play in the Champions League on top of that. Amadou Onana from Everton is reportedly open to a move, what do you think of him? DB: One solution to the goalscoring issue could be a new striker. Do you have any idea how much Benzema will be earning in Saudi?

DB: So if not Benzema, Is there anyone that has caught your eye as a striker Arsenal should target? EP: Ivan Toney, but the price seems very high, £m for him? They should target middle-aged players who can represent the future of Arsenal as well, and who can bring something to the group for example quality.

You want someone like Trossard who can play as a striker and on the wing. I think they really need a typical striker, someone who can fix the defence, someone who will be there when they cross the ball, like I said, the plan B.

He is a useful squad player. They still need to bring in somebody else who can be the starter and consistently score goals for them. I think Nketiah is no more than a rotation player.

DB: Arsenal are largely unaffected by AFCON, with Elneny the only departing player as Partey continues his recovery from injury.

Is this a good opportunity to catch up with Liverpool, who are missing Mo Salah? EP: Liverpool have an extremely strong team and even though of course they are worse without Salah they still have a lot of attacking quality.

This could definitely be a chance for Arsenal to put pressure on Liverpool at the top of the table. DB: Kevin De Bruyne returned from injury in style with a goal and assist over the weekend. Seeing the impact he has on games, does his return worry you as an Arsenal fan?

EP: Of course! The guy has just come back after months and in the space of 25 minutes changed the game on its head. You can see the opponents were scared of him when he came on the pitch and his teammates were lifted.

What did you make of that? EP: We will see at the end of the season, but of course, you have to say Spurs have been very impressive under Postecoglou.

DB: After Liverpool played Arsenal recently, a few fans have engaged in debate around William Saliba and Ibrahima Konate.

Football prediction Benzema is now more valuable to Zidane than Cristiano Blog of Africa Bet prediction The departure of Cristiano Ronaldo in the summer of has led many to believe that Real Madrid will fall into a serious goal crisis, because there is no one to compensate for his goals.

After the transfer of the Portuguese, however, the Whites got a new leader in the face of Karim Benzema. Often criticized before, the French striker began to play very strongly and is a key player in the tactics of Zinedine Zidane.

Moreover - Benzema is now even more valuable than CR7 for Real under the leadership of the coach in question. And yet there is a big difference in goals in favor of Ronaldo. The Portuguese scored goals out of a total of in the first period of Zidane from January 4, to May 31, Karim Benzema could be a decent captain pivot in Wednesday's DraftKings tournaments, as he's not expected to be popular with Manchester City being such big favorites at home, writes Jack Burkart.

DB: After Liverpool played Arsenal recently, a few fans have engaged in debate around William Saliba and Ibrahima Konate. How do you think the two compare? EP: I have a lot of trust of Didier Deschamps and think he is a brilliant manager.

He thinks Saliba should be on the bench and Konate should be starting and I trust him with that decision. Sooner or later he will get his chance in the national team but for now Konate is doing so well there so there is no reason for Deschamps to drop him.

Konate earned his place and has never let his team down.
