Carvalho is perfect, him and a Santi replace ment and we will be competing.

Carvalho would be good next to Xhaka in 4231 I reckon.
Wenger has stated we'd start with the 3 at the back but there was mention that we will have both practiced for certain games I think... I'd love it if we operated like this. Have a few versatile players to play both formations and one or two beasts for each formation.Carvalho would be good next to Xhaka in 4231 I reckon.
Has anyone actually watched him? Seen his supposed highlights on YouTube and doesn't look anything special, just a brute.
A brute with an eye for a pass, the passing range of Xhaka, excellent aerial ability, strong and calm on the ball, he is so difficult to dribble past (averages less than one per game), he also averages more take ons than someone like Kante while being dispossessed less.
All in all, people make out like he is physically similar to Xhaka. Just because you don't see him running around like Kante doesn't mean he is slow. He only sprints when he has to and usually his positioning is so good that he doesn't need to make constant recovery runs. If you watch any compilation of him you will see him drive through midfield taking players on and they are nowhere near catching him, or are all of these players slower than Xhaka?
His main weakness his finishing and shooting, not his physical attributes as people are led to believe. I mean ffs he is probably faster than Pogba and Coquelin. Coquelin bounced off Hazard where as Hazard wouldn't even be able to get around Carvalho.
Xhaka - Carvalho would dominate possession and provide a solid Base for 4 attackers in front of them. It would also add considerable protection to our defence and allow us to play various formations.
Are there even any links?
SOLD. How old is he? seems like we've been linked to him for 15 years so its hard to have a decent guess lol.
