If Tomiyasu’s injury is what kept Saliba from warming the bench today then I worry whether Arteta has learned anything from his previous seasons. You play your best players in their best positions and keep them happy, full stop.
Also feel for White now who has to keep an eye over his shoulder with Tomiyasu and now Saliba breathing down his back.
With all that said, I’m loving the competition!
If White is sensible he will see that he's in a good position to play plenty of football.
As first cover for three different players (Saliba, Gabriel and Tomi,) he is highly likely to play more football than any of those three. He's likely to be needed in at least half the matches if not more

Its more if he doesn't re-sign and we lose him, if Arteta convinces him to sign then we can pass this off as a loan move come good, but if he doesn't sign and the big clubs snap him up it'll be an autopsy on Arteta's handling of this and why it went south.

It's another example of awful contract management. We should have extended his deal last year before we sent him out on loan again.
Part of me thinks Arteta wasn't completely sold on him making it here and would have looked to move him on if he hadn't performed so well.
Woudn't be surprised if PSG / Real start making noises if we let this drag on

There hasn’t been one noise about him actually refusing to sign a contract because he doesn’t want to really has there? If so, where have you heard it from?
I haven’t seen much panicking on the Saka thread about his contract, especially compared to Saliba’s. They’re both just as important
