lol technical player who is probably the best we have in the final third seems to suggest hes ok going forward man.

Super pedantic to try make anything else out of that statement or marginalise that to solely decision making.

Its not like Bellerin has set the bar super high, Liverpool is not a good gauge of being a direct player also, since they specialise in nullifying that.

I would be willing to bet he is at least comparable if not marginally better than Bellerin going forward which is what I am trying to say.

Not what Arteta says.

From the little I’ve seen, he does seem a bit better than Bellerin in this regard. We barely attacked against Pool so nobody looked great going forward.

Sure, maybe when we're in and around the box hes good, I only rarely saw him with Southampton, maybe a dozen or so times that I can remember but carrying the ball and making runs down the flank, he doesn't seem great at it. Tbf he has been decent on the ball and such but I'd prefer him to be a full back as opposed to wing back. I think what Arteta is getting at is he is much better at passing and spotting the runs as well as putting in crosses than the other choices we have.

I think Bellerin is much better at actually making forward runs down the wing and when he is fully fit again taking on players near and in the box with the ball at his feet.

I guess time will tell, he looks decent anyway.

I thought Lacazette looked great going forward in the Liverpool match tbh.

I will be honest I know very little about Cedric, it is just that I have not been impressed with Bellerin lately and I hope Cedric can improve us.

Both have had long lay offs so yes like you said time will tell @Monstar-Gunn4r .

Lacazette had a great individual game (he seems to take it up a notch against big teams), as a whole though our attack was very disjointed. I think we fashioned like 3 genuine chances on goal and were just uncharacteristically clinical that day.

4 years contract. Someone has to deem an investigation! There is something incredibly sketchy going on here!

Yep, Arsenal laundering money through all these bums. You realise just when we think we’re clearing out we recruit more of these losers. It seems every time we get rid of 1, 2 more pop up. My dream overhaul is never gonna happen it seems

Think him and Saka as wingback today were absolutely useless going forward Cedric kept crossing without looking who in box Saka was almost invisible

Bad enough having one midget with no pace bouncing off players in Torreira. Now we have two, albeit on a 4-year deal. At least Torreira can from time to time recieve a pass without fumbling it out of play.

Meh...back up right back better suited to a 4 than wing back. If the rumour I heard that his contract with us is lower than his southampton one is true, I'm fine with it. His job is to be better than Jenkinson and Eboue...

Bringing in back up players shouldn’t be a priority as we have a bunch of them.

Our squad lacks quality not players to make up the numbers. Both Cedric and Mari were the wrong choices imo.

Well he is meant to be a backup rb after all but man this was a crap performance. Just kept spamming useless crosses as if we still have Giroud in the middle. Actually even that wouldn’t have helped as almost every one of his crosses didn’t even clear the first man

I'm not saying he was good. Most of the team was poor as hell tonight.
I wish we had a more mobile Giroud as an option tbf
