da betway: Andre Santos says it is important that the Gunners share the goalscoring responsibilities ahead of tomorrow’s Champions League fixture against Schalke.
da heads bet: Arsenal have struggled since Robin van Persie, who was the highest scorer for the club last season, left for Manchester United this summer.
However, Santos says that the team cannot rely on just one player to score goals.
Talking to Arsenal Player, the Brazilian said: “It is very important that a team has goals from different players. Sometimes to depend on only one player is very difficult and puts a lot of pressure on him, so it’s important to have the collective responsibility, which we have here at Arsenal.
“It’s important that the team relies on every player to help in every aspect, to mark, to create chances and even to score goals. The Champions League is a tough competition and we have to share those responsibilities, and that’s what we’re doing at Arsenal.”
Santos also feels confident that Arsenal have a chance to win this season’s Champions League title.
“The earlier we qualify in the group stage, the better – and this will boost our confidence for the knockout stages. We are in a very strong position with the good start, but we are not qualified yet.
“We have to play a very strong team in Schalke twice yet, so we have to keep focused. But if we play to our potential, we are confident we can challenge for the trophy this year,” he added.
No less than 10 different players from Arsenal’s first team have scored across all of the competitions so far this season. Arsenal currently lead Group B in the Champions League.
