The only CB we have who put on top class displays the only CB we have who is a leader, the only CB we have who can actually play out from the back properly.

Exactly to replace Luiz with a younger upgrade will cost 50M+ in today’s market, money we don’t really have which we could use elsewhere
Saliba?

If he lives up to his potential he should become our best CB since Sol Campbell.

Might become a better defender but he doesn’t have Luiz passing ability, nor do we know if he can become a leader either


Not being funny but Luiz is hardly a great leader, his passing is very good though, but really we should be looking at our midfield to provide key passes.

David Luiz was the best CB we've had in years , and not renewing his contract is awful decision.
Yes he was capable of doing bambi on ice performance , but also he's the player that comes closest to being a leader in a team that we lack those super hard .He was also the player that younger players can benefit a lot from like Gabriel or Saliba . He has won leagues knows what needs to be done etc . We really lack that kind of a player in the team.
Everyone will say about his red cards penalties etc. Yes he makes mistakes but when we're down hes way better leader than Aubameyang or whatever our captain of the day is.

Name another CB who has even been close to putting in MoTM performances. Luiz is the only CB that has!

Gabriel before he got rested at the start of season, but our manager thought he needed a rest he was too good

Furry Muff. But you guys have kinda made my point, Gabriel before he started making mistakes put in some good performances, nobody else has the bility to do it. Also, what happened to Gabriel, he has looked a shadow of the player he began as. Luiz and Gabriel is our best CB partnership. Why are our players making so many mistakes under Arteta ?!!!!

Because of poor midfield cover the CBs come under severe pressure and make mistakes. Also, high press from opponents and this obsession of playing from the back, forces mistakes from CBs and DMs. Everything needs to be mixed up in moderation and use of judgement should be encouraged.

I don't care if we lose Luiz.

Yes at times he can be good but he's also responsible for what 70% of the clown moments in defence, how many red cards and free kicks / penalties has he given away?

He was the Xhaka of our defence and we have other younger defenders starting to come up now, Gabriel, hopefully Saliba, will be our new best defenders.
