Comparing Arsenal’s record with and without Lucas Torreira in 2019-20


Quick reads

Despite showing flashes of his talent at Arsenal, Lucas Torreira struggled to solidify his place on the team under Mikel Arteta in 2019-20.

Torreira has been heavily linked to a transfer from the Emirates in the past 12 months, with Milan and Fiorentina reportedly vying for his signing.

We compared Arsenal’s Premier League record with the midfielder in the starting XI with without him in 2019-20.

With Torreira leaving

Games: 17
Wins: 3
Draws: 9
Defeats: 5

Points per game: 1.05
Win rate: 17.6%

Goals per game: 1.18
Goals conceded per game: 1.35

Without Torreira to leave

Games: 21
Wins: 11
Draws: 5
Defeats: 5

Points per match: 1.8
Win rate: 52.4%

Goals per game: 1.71
Goals conceded per game: 1.19

As the statistics show, Arsenal have a higher win rate and collect more points per game without Torreira in the team, even if this does not take into account the standard of opponent.

The Gunners also have an average of more goals per game and suffer far fewer when the Uruguayan international is excluded from the starting lineup.
