“Referees are less strict than in France, teams like to play low and in counterattack and defenders in general are stronger than in France.” In January, Wenger said those powerful defenders and the fact that there was no winter break made life hard for Lacazette in his first season.
The then Arsenal boss pointed to Alvaro Morata’s struggles at Chelsea. Morata has since revealed that he changed his hair, his car and his boots to try to break his bad spell.
