Marco Silva is eagerly anticipating the match against Arsenal this Sunday at Craven Cottage. Despite much talk about the Gunners' strength in set-pieces, the Fulham coach remains unfazed, reminding them that his team actually outperformed them in this area last season.
The Cottagers' previous encounter with Arsenal ended in a 2-2 draw at the Emirates, followed by a 2-1 victory at Craven Cottage. Silva vividly remembers how his team managed to score twice from set-pieces while their opponents failed to do so. He hopes to replicate this success in the upcoming game.
However, Silva is aware of the challenge his team will face from Arsenal's set-pieces. Nevertheless, he draws confidence from their past performances against the Gunners and believes they can do it again. He also acknowledges that Arsenal will not underestimate them, especially after their impressive results last season.
Speaking about Fulham's recent match against Brighton, Silva acknowledges that playing on Thursday night will not give them any advantage. He also recognizes the strength of the Premier League and expects Arsenal to be well-prepared for the game.
Meanwhile, Mikel Arteta, the Arsenal manager, has high expectations for his team. He wants them to be the best in every aspect of the game, including set-pieces. Arteta believes that mastering these different facets will make them a dominant force in the league.
He also reflects on the progress his team has made, from their previous struggles to now aiming to be the best at everything. Arteta wants Arsenal to have the best academy, player development, and recruitment, as well as the best coaches and atmosphere in the stadium. He believes that this is the key to achieving success in the long run.
