Mohamed Elneny has been excellent for Arsenal in recent weeks after being reintroduced into the side by Mikel Arteta. Without the Egyptian's presence in midfield, the Gunners certainly would not be in the position they are in now as they look to qualify for the Champions League.
Arsenal lost three matches on the bounce against Crystal Palace, Brighton, and Southampton which dented the Gunners’ hopes of finishing inside the top four. Elneny didn’t start in any of these games, but since being bought into the team, Arteta’s side has won back-to-back games against top-six sides in Chelsea and Manchester United.
With Thomas Partey injured, Arsenal desperately needed a midfield enforcer to replace him until the end of the season. The last week proved that Elneny is certainly the most equipped in the squad to do so.
