You have to ask the question why we went in so heavily for Mudryk ?

[Pat Vegas]

What was behind Arteta’s thinking. He’s a good young player who’ll no doubt improve further but Martinelli has far more in his locker at this point, unless MA intended to switch him to the middle (unlikely).
You’d have two young £90m players battling it out for the left wing ?
Trossard was clearly the better option, given his relatively low cost and adaptability.
I’m probably missing something, as usual, but the more I see of Mudryk, the more confusing the decision process becomes, against the greater need for a midfield replacement for Partey & Jorg.

I suppose it could be spun that under the great Arteta Mudryk could become a different player.

Mr Arteta is very stubborn sometimes and I think it's going to cost him in the long run. This season he's been lucky so far we are unbeaten.
