In the third round of the UEFA Champions League, Arsenal defeated Atletico Madrid 4-0 at home. Among them, Yockers, who was once in a ball shortage, scored twice. In an interview with Sky Sports, Sherwood expressed his appreciation for the Swedish striker.
Sherwood said: "I have never doubted him. He fights for the team, occupying the central defender zone and creating space for his teammates. He dares to appear in front of the goal and is not afraid of missing opportunities because he knows the next opportunity will come soon. He has that kind of perseverance."
"You saw Arteta praising him last night, as if he needed confidence. In fact, I think he knows how good he is, and he knows that Arsenal is an excellent team now."
