Has Arteta forgot we’re in 4 competitions this year? The UCL being the biggest one of them all. Zinchenko and Tomiyasu aren’t gonna rotate efficiently, especially considering their injury records. Kiwior isn’t a natural LB but he has played ahead of Tierney, why? We’re gonna need Tierney’s direct play and overlapping. Zinchenko, Tomiyasu and Kiwior won’t cut it when we play against wing heavy teams like Liverpool, Real Madrid, Barcelona, and I hate to say this Tottenham now Ange took over. Having Tierney on the bench to counter pacy wingers when Zinchenko is tired would have saved a few points last season.
Also let’s get something straight. Tomiyasu played as a classic LB against Palace and got burnt multiple times by Ayew and Co. Tierney would have bossed that match. The more I think about it. The more I believe it might be Arteta wanting to offload all of the Emery era signings.
