BAM, now there's room for 3 CBs, which will give wingbacks and Partey/Ode flexibility to go forward and support the attack. Xhaka/Elneny can stay back.
We lose almost nothing in attack and have everything to gain. This isn't even a difficult system to implement, if Arteta can let his obsession with 4-3-2-1 go.

What would the lineup be in 3-4-3? Partey and Odegaard in CM?

Possibly, but it's a moot point if we're signing Tielmans and not letting anyone go. I see us starting Tielemans, Xhaka and Partey together next season.

We only have 2 seasons to persuade him we are a good place to be, before we loose another £50m player for £0

It would be interesting to see those 3

So much nonsense about Arteta not being keen. Looks like it's the opposite- he can't wait to have him in the squad.
