Mikel Merino has stepped up as a makeshift striker for Arsenal during a challenging injury period, scoring goals in both the Champions League and Premier League. Despite this being a new position for him since childhood, he is committed to adapting by consulting with coaches and analysts to maximize his contribution to the team. Merino acknowledges the challenges of this role but emphasizes the importance of mentality and continuous improvement in making a positive impact during difficult times.
It's kind of crazy to be honest, but at the same time it's about having the right mentality... I'm trying to improve every single day in my new position and trying to help the team, so when good things happen I'm really proud of that.
If the coach asks you to play one position, okay, you have to take all your characteristics and put it on the table for the team.
