Don't like hearing this. I hope it was pain management thing rather than playing into a degenerative issue.

I know he's a winner, but I'd really rather he get surgery sooner and skip the WC. Dead WC anyway.

He's worth a lot more than €100m too

Is he playing with injections?

Need to be careful here, remember what happened to Umtiti.

Feels like only Wilo could banter Mbappe off like that and get away with it

What a warrior. You can tell this guy has a lot of integrity and pride in what he does.

The poster of the tweet needs to edit that asap though, the placing of that ‘f’ typo is very weird.

Arteta has done many great things at Arsenal, but the idea that Saliba's early years in north London were all part of a carefully managed development plan doesn't stand up to scrutiny. He was cut from Arsenal's plans. When Saliba was at Marseille, he was convinced he'd never play for Arsenal under Arteta.

I still don't get how Arteta didn't see the potential. Many keep on saying he was always in the plans but more articles are suggesting this wasn't the case. He was probably not setting the world on fire with his attitude/morale in 2019 because he was young, lost his mother and having difficultly settling into another country. But his talent/potential must have shown in training to some extent, and especially with his performances in France on loan, I could even see he was a star ffs. I still don't get what the club were thinking, I just think they thought he had a poor attitude and wasn't going to fit the culture of the new regime.

Our guy probably winning the World Cup as well, what a season for him

He's going to be put into some nasty convos if he wins the WC

This is the best defender of his generation already and he's not even in his prime yet and also not fully healthy.

I'd love nothing more than for him to retire here. He is absolutely incredible. His tendency to sniff danger out before it arrives is just superb.

There's not a better CB on the planet.
