I think you are being a little harsh, yes our transfer priorities have been questionable but we need to give Zinchenko and Vieira time. Zinchenko has been decent so far and Vieira looked good in his cameo yesterday. Yes we have other pressing issues to deal with in the team but I trust they can sort them out, they have to as it's obvious what this team needs.
I am not fully sold on Arteta yet but the team is making big progress now, that is undeniable.
Ben White is a decent option to have covering RB or CB, yes we have overpaid for him but he's a decent option TBH, a reliable performer.
