I know it pisses me off.
Everyone loves Tomi because for once we have a RB who know's his first job is to defend, just like Sagna used to etc.
Why we buy defenders who don't know how to defend is beyond me, then Arteta gets angry when his fullbacks get torched.

Agreed, and Sagna was just that, the perfect fullback imo.
Going for more attacking fullbacks could suggest 3 at the back again, with an attacking FB as WB.
... but then why not stick with Tavares if that's the case?
Would f**King love Martinez, shame he's said on United.
