Lucas Torreira's dad was right about him moving here, so fathers are 1/1 this summer.
The same with Sokratis, it's 2/2.

Maybe Xhaka will be deployed as a more attacking player. I don't know. It's crazy that we are linked with all these central midfield players and we are already packed.
He might be going for a 4-4-2 diamond. Özil or Mkh at the top. Xhaka and Ramsey either side, Torreira or Nzonzi holding. Or Torreira and Ramsey either side. Play wingbacks for width.
I don't know. Just hope Unai Knows becomes a thing.
I rarely see sides play so narrow. Do you have examples of successful sides using a narrow diamond?Many of us have said a diamond midfield would suit our personel, i'd like to see it given a chance, the fact we have no real wingers should surely be a driving factor behind giving it a go.
--------Laca - PEA--------
------------Özil------------
--Xhaka--------Ramsey--
---------Torreira----------
Nice blend of skills there, plenty of movement for Özil/Xhaka to pick out with the front two plus Ramsey making runs in behind, allows the full backs to push on whilst Torreira/NZonzi (if we got him) drop to make a back 3 when we are going forwards.
Only downside is that it may not suit Nelson who does seem to be a wide man in the making to me.
Iwobi and Mhki could slot in in place of Özil or Ramsey so they would still get game time.
Welbezihno and Nketieh rotate for Laca and PEA.

Nzonzi ---> PSG---Rabiot ---> Arsenal. Win Win combination

I get the diamond argument although I prefer mhiki instead of xhaka with his experience in pressing systems.
How does Nzonzi fit here though unless we have just bought Torreira for rotation?
To me an Nzonzi purchase pushes us towards a 4231.

How many can effectively play the deepest position on Emery board spotted yesterday? So much pressure on Torreira to come in at a high level & maintain otherwise. A player like N'zonzi relives the pressure.We don't need N'zonzi. Torreira, Xhaka, Guendozi, AMN, Elneny and Ramsey fighting it out for two starting spots.
Bailey is a fantatistic talent but our front 4 of PEA, Laca, Özil and Mkhi is top quality and Bailey wont go anyhwere he isnt starting.
