   "It's definitely not a one-person job," Dunn says. "You need help. You need someone to cut off the supply lines to Haaland and sometimes you have to take a step back and watch a talented player like Haaland perform and accept that if he wants to, he can do it because of the way he runs, his desire to score goals, the positions he gets himself into. He's so hard to guard."
    "Many times before Arsenal were the team that played the best football and Thierry Henry was the striker you had to try to stop. It was almost impossible because the passes his teammates gave him came from all angles, from the back to the middle. Unfortunately, centre-backs in the Premier League are pitted against the best centre-forwards in the world and these strikers are hungry for goals. It's an almost impossible task to successfully defend against Harland on a regular basis."
