Technical players all over the pitch.
Finally a rational post. Completely spot on.
You can't play free flowing, dynamic football without ballers in the team. City have Bernardo, Grealish, Foden, KDB, Mahrez.. Liverpool have Diaz, Salah, Bobby, Thiago, Jota, Nunez... players that are confident on the ball, very good technically and can play in the pocket.
We are severely lacking players like this and Arteta is quoted as acknowledging that. So I'm glad we're addressing the issue because in order to impose our own style of play and dictate games, we need those kind of players.
We got rid of a load of technical players over the years like Ramsey, Jack, Cazorla, Ozil, so we desperately need them.
I'm with HH here.....we need and we've always needed a steel spine. Players who will fight to the death if necessary. We do have some players now, who are a definite improvement on Wengers leftovers, and of course we need players with skillz too......its about balance.
