Tomi at LB bodes ill for Tierney's future at the club. Questionable squad rotation as well
I'm sort of up in the air on this, but I am starting to wonder how the players themselves are feeling about it. Glad Tomiyasu is finally getting a few games, though, he's got as much right to any frustration as Tierney.
It would be ironic if after having to pick up extra cover because of Tierney being injury prone, it was Zinchenko who was out for more of the season.
Chaps, Arteta is not going to rotate his squad. He will keep running his favorite players in the main games. And he will give the ones without injury worries a runout in the Europa Cup games as well. It’s both to keep them fit and to keep the squad focused.
When we get to next season and we are playing Real Madrid and Ajax midweek, this prep will have been helpful.
