Bardhi is not the tallest or the most physical of players

Bardhi

The North Macedonian is only 5ft 7 and isn’t the strongest physically either. Arteta isn’t, though, too concerned with a player’s physical attributes, with the Spaniard very much focused on their technical ability.


However, English football can be difficult to adapt to at best of times and Bardhi may find it especially challenging if he is pushed off the ball too easily.
