Justin Hoyte used to play right back for us but I’d still see that team play with more style and purpose than this current lot. Fuck no would Cesc struggle in this team.
I know this is hard for you, but the managerial talent in the league today is eons better than it was during that era. Like not even close. Wenger was still a top class manager during this period.

When Pochettino arrived in England, the game changed completely. Now you have Guardiola, Klopp, a fading Mourinho, and even a guy like Koeman.

This is Wenger's best squad since the Emirates move. I really believe that, and its among the best in the league but he has no idea how to put this group together to win.

Having a slow ass Fabregas in our midfield will expose him even more and won't make a difference.
