  "account": "Mikel Arteta has commended Noni Madueke's determination to improve and his recent performances, noting that the 24-year-old winger can still be even better. Madueke has put in impressive performances between the September-October international break and the upcoming November one. The winger has not only scored goals and assists but also made significant contributions in various games. Madueke's cross led to Arsenal's equalizer against Leeds United, he was involved in the moves for the late equalizer against Bayern Munich and the winner against Liverpool, and his rebounded shot was turned into a goal by Martin Odegaard against Hull City. Arteta admitted that Madueke reacted to not playing often, trained hard, and has been an improved version of himself since then. The winger has also created more chances per 90 minutes than any other player in the Premier League with at least 250 minutes played, suggesting he is utilizing his dribbling ability more effectively. With Bukayo Saka out, Madueke's contribution has been vital, and he has done well in this run of games. The only remaining question is why England manager Thomas Tuchel did not recognize Madueke's potential for an England call-up. From an Arsenal perspective, Madueke will now get a period of rest and a chance to perform at full throttle after the break.",
