Creatively, he’s not too far from Olise/Yamal. On top of that, he’s an elite dribbler in both tight and big spaces, against low blocks and in transition.
Physically, he’s up there. There’s been a noticeable leap in his physical development over the past 12 months. He shrugs off his markers and rides contact with ease. He has the height, the strides and the athleticism needed to compete at the top level.
He’s a goal threat when he cuts in from the left. He’s also an intelligent box mover who can shoot with both feet and finish exquisitely.
Nusa is the type of signing that will elevate Arsenal’s attack to world-class status. His creative brain will unlock every single player in that attack. He’s on the brink of superstardom. Arsenal have to sign him in January!

At 0:44, I was really impressed with how Zubimendi handled that situation. The old Zubimendi would probably have taken the safe option, turned away from pressure and played a back pass. But this time, he showed a different level of confidence.
He manipulated the tight space, used his body positioning to create a passing angle and, instead of recycling possession, found a forward pass that broke Prague first line of pressure.
This is the evolution I want to see in his game. That one decision helped Arsenal escape Brighton's pressure and progress up the pitch.
Excellent decision-making. More of this, Zubimendi!

Wingers who are capable of finding creative solutions in every situation, whether in transition or against a packed defence, are worth more than gold, and Nusa is one of them. A superstar in the making.
This has to be Arsenal’s main January signing.
Here is my Project ‘Fix Arsenal’s Attack.’
Arsenal need an attacking rebuild, a complete restructure of the club’s attacking personnel and tactics.
Adding the next-generation superstars to the team is important to taking the club to the next level.
These are the three next-generation superstars who are still attainable and whom Arsenal should sign before other big clubs do.
Attacking Midfielder: Nico Paz 22
Paz is already one of the best 10s in the game right now. A combination of world-class physical and technical attributes. A world-class 10 who can carry the ball in big spaces, manipulate it in small spaces, create chances from every zone and score goals himself. I call him the love child of KDB and Ødegaard.
Left Winger: Antonio Nusa 21
Nusa is a potential superstar winger under the right environment. He’s one of the Neymar-archetype wingers. A mix of technicality, flair, explosiveness and creativity. One of the best pure dribblers and ball manipulators in wide areas in the game right now. He has all the qualities Arsenal’s LW is lacking.
Striker: E. J. Kroupi 20
Kroupi is a potential superstar CF/SS. His ability to strike the ball is almost unmatched. He’s one of the best shot generators in the game, with minimal backlift, a certified xG cheater. His box movement is great, and his hold-up play and creativity are also developing at a rapid pace.
These three players will take Arsenal’s attack to the next level. The fact that they’re all still young means Arsenal will be set for the next decade.
Era-defining signings they’ll be.

He’s a lot better than Nusa
Been watching more LW tape recently and Abde is the one that points towards a banker explosion of becoming a superstar the most
His physical/technical tools are already at a good balance. Transitional + outlet threat is legit and he’s ironing out his final third quality
Really good temperament 1v1, has an idea of what he’s gonna do next instead of being a headless runner

He's got more #10 traits than I originally thought, great in tight space, loves to combine with his teammates and got great spacial awareness
He'll need a backboard CF like Kai for him to really shine and be best platformed, his ball striking is nice

🗣️ Jamie Carragher on Declan Rice:
“Declan Rice is the best midfield player in the Premier League by a long way. It’s not even a debate.
“There was a debate last season with Caicedo, but it's not even close. He's the best midfielder in this country by a mile.”
Spot on @Carra23.
