Arsenal attacker Trossard happy to play where needed

Arsenal attacker Leandro Trossard says he has no real preference about where he plays.

Trossard has been amongst the goals for the Gunners this season.

Asked about his favoured position, Trossard told arsenal.com: "That's a tough question.

“I don't really mind playing all of those positions up top, to be fair. If it's left winger, as a false nine, even as an attacking midfielder, I don't really have a straight answer for that.

“[As a kid I played] as a number ten, like a proper attacking midfielder back in the old days, or as a striker as well.

“I always try to be in the box and in good positions to score goals and with the quality that we have, I know I have to be there, especially if I play on the left wing, I need to be there when, for example, Bukayo Saka is on the ball on the right side, so yeah I follow my instinct there, to be honest, to get in the right positions to score goals."
