As a consequence of being a focal point of attack, Ronaldo will not be charged with defensive work like Gabriel Jesus does, but his presence will limit the attacking style opponents might want to impose because it will be dangerous for them to leave Ronaldo around their box.
Arsenal already have a working midfield pivot in Partey and Granit Xhaka, the latter of whom also helps in attack. Bukayo Saka and Gabriel Martinelli will do their thing on the flanks, then Ronaldo can deliver and help Arsenal win the Premier League.
