Arteta managed to make Mustafi look decent, which even Wenger couldn't manage. So I do have hope. But signing Pepe for that price was not shrewd business. I like the player, but his consistency is severely lacking.
Martinelli is an amazing talent, so I can't argue with that.
Luiz may be frustrating but on his day he is still unplayable and it was a necessary signing.
Saliba will need time to adapt, so I will hold out on an opinion for now.
Tierney is great, albeit with a concerning recent injury history.
Mari and Soares were necessary depth. And the former looks decent.
But all together, we were left with glaring and unforgivable weaknesses. Losing Rambo, not getting a CAM to replace Özil whilst he turns pro on Fortnite earning £350k a week. A dominant CM would have been nice but we assumed Torreira would kick on but his size and lack of pace worked against him.
