Thinking the same, Timber could also be a good DM. Im sure Arteta knows all of this and trust that he will do whats best for the team and the situation. Happy days🙏
Zinny should move into midfield to deputise for Odegard, while Calafiori , Timbre and Tomiyasu rotate at LB. In fact the 3 can play LB and LCB, while Tomi and Timbre can play across the back 4 and in Defensive Midfield. Kiwior should go; he's not assertive or tenacious enough for EPL and Leroy Sane dismantled him during Bayern match. I think Arteta should experiment Calafiori and Timbre at DM; their defensive tenacity and football ball moving ability could be revolutionary to the team's evolution this season. But for Arsenal to win the EPL, Arteta needs 5 players in and 13 out. 5 IN: R. Calafiori, M. Merino, V.Gyokeres, P, Neto, and E. Eze . OUT 13: Elneney, Cedric, Lokonga, Tavares, Kiwior, Tierny, E S Rowe, Nketiah, Reiss, Marquinho, Patino, Norton-Cuffy and Ramsdale. Veira should be given this year to prove himself
Defense win you titles. We now have the best combination of defenders to compete effectively for multiple titles as well as withstand any injuries. We now have 7 quality players for the back 4. White, Saliba, Tomiyasu, Kiwior, Magalhaes, Timber, and Calafiori RB: White/Tomiyasu/Timber RCB: Saliba/Tomiyasu LCB: Magalhaes/Kiwior LB: Calafiori/Tim/Tomi DEFENSIVE COMBINATIONS: White----Saliba-----Magalhaes-----Calafiori Tomiyasu-----Saliba-----Magalhaes----Calafiori Timber----Saliba-----Magalhaes-----Calafiori White----Saliba-----Magalhaes-----Tomiyasu White----Tomiyasu-----Magalhaes-----Calafiori Timber----Tomiyasu-----Magalhaes-----Calafiori Tomiyasu-----Saliba-----Kiwior----Calafiori Timber-----Saliba-----Kiwior----Calafiori OTHER COMBINATIONS: White-----Tomiyasu-----Kiwior-----Timber White-----Tomiyasu-----Calafiori-----Timber Timber----Tomiyasu----Kiwior-----Calafiori etc.
Timber on the right Cali on the left is worth a try but sometimes during tge season thing happen, maybe unjuries or form where these scenarios will be needed. Will wait and see how things pan out...good to have all these options🙏
@@KayceeElekwa 😂🤣 the British fans are sentimentally attached to the English players over results - the same thing Arsene Wenger used to do. Jurrien Timber is a better than Ben White both as a RB & CB - period. I believe in Arteta meritocratic system. The best performer in every position MUST start to get results and take us up another level than we did last season to win trophies 🏆🏆🏆 this season.
My humble opinion is that Zinni needs to relinquish the left back role and be used solely in midfield. Zinchenko is a defensive liability but can serve us well as a ball handler in midfield.
My humble opinion is that we should sell zinchenco while we still can get a good salary for him because I do think that kiwior is better than zinni in the league last year. Just my opinion 🤷 😊
@user-gv9ux4qc1e agree, Kiwior is a better defender, but the original comment is about moving to midfield. Zinny would serve better there. There must be a reason why Arteta isn't considering him there for the left 8. No idea what that is though....
@@aaronmwangi3251 let's not do this tribal "this player is better than that player" n0nsense with these youngsters.. There is nothing "overrated" about Nwaneri, they are BOTH the real deal.
Jurriën Timber has this gangster confident top dude about him. He has that attitude of some of the invicibles (Viara and Burkamp). People will underestimate due to his size an absolute beast. ARTETA IS GOING TO SUPRISE PEOPLE WITH USING HIM AS 6.
From what i've seen of simmons - as you said v similar to Odegarrd, can he score those wonder goals and is he enough of an x factor? Also given how arteta coaches, can players have the freedom to provide those x-factor moments?
Very good point, the system does restrict our star players like Saka for example, from having that freedom sometimes. I’d like to see him come inside more next season. Arteta is still a young coach and needs to develop in that sense.
