Was this our most wasted summer transfer window yet?

[selassie]

he did upgrade on Santi. Xhaka is that, the problem is Wenger's an old fool.

Santi and Coq were never going to win us a title. Coquelin is too limited.





his data shows he is one of the best, and even in his play this season he has been one of the best in England.

And yes, Pirlo, Xabi, and Xavi would not look good in this system. None of those guys have good mobility either, and the main issue with Xhaka is he is defending in too much space. We also do not provide him outlets.

You stay underrating the systemic problems of this team. Its weird too because you want Wenger out.

Xhaka isn't an upgrade on Santi, they are different players and besides Xhaka doesn't even get around the pitch to control central midfield like Santi has done over the past few years. Xhaka is a specialist player...his specific role is deep lying playmaker, we don't need him.

I agree that we won't win the league with Santi and Coq as our midfield pairing but they are our best ones, they need to be upgraded upon. An upgrade on Coq IMO was Kante, he was available in the Summer and we weren't interested. Coq's role within the team is to break up play, cover ground and distribute the ball, that's all we really need him for, his only real limitation is his passing.

I don't care about Pirlo, Xabi and Xavi, it's not what we need and never have done...we need mobile CM's that cover ground, break up play and can pass a ball. Xhaka is a Wenger vanity signing, he's a luxury player, yes Xhaka is highly technically...but he is not mobile and can't tackle, without Coq we have nobody in Central Midfield that can tackle...it's ludicrous.

I do want Wenger out and have done so for about 4 seasons now!
