Btw, do you think it's silly not to have prioritised a new MF after Jesus? Given ESR doesn't seem to be first choice, I dunno why we got Vieirra instead of a GX upgrade. If we get one now after signing Zin, then I'll be happy.

But after being in the CL for 20 years, as soon as we signed GX, we dropped out. That's under 3 different managers.

6 seasons. Playing with Ozil and Alexis, or with Partey and Odin and we still don't get top 4.

He's the one common denominator to the six seasons of shîte. He isn't top 4 quality.
I think it is a huge leap to see Granit as the reason we haven't qualified for the Champions League in so long.

Last season was probably the first he played in a proper position for him and our record when he played with Partey was fantastic.

Of course, we can upgrade - and it is possible that is where Arteta wants to play Zinchenko. Not sure Tielemans is the panacea people seem to think he is
