New sporting director can't let club waste another shot at league title

Can Arsenal's Miracle Man conjure a top-class striker?

The return of club football after what was, for most top-flight fans, an even longer international break than usual brought a mixed bag for Arsenal, Bukayo Saka's goalscoring return to action after three months out for Tuesday's 2-1 win over Fulham and confirmation of the appointment of "Miracle Man" Andrea Berta as sporting director has given everyone at the club a lift after a frustrating start to the year that extinguished their hopes in three competitions, but injuries to Gabriel Magalhaes and Jurrien Timber against the Cottagers are fresh concerns for Mikel Arteta.

Arsenal's season now rests entirely on eliminating Real Madrid from the Champions League, a feat only four clubs have managed in the past 11 years. Arteta's side should be a match for anyone, but Real consistently produce a kind of sorcery in the European Cup that leaves Arsenal as firm underdogs for the quarter-final.
