Ladies, Gentlemen, Gooners.
I am extremely impressed with our summer attitude so far; if we can get just one of Cazorla or Sahin, I will be very happy, in attacking terms.
However, I am seriously worried about the Right Back position. Jenkinson is raw, and imo is not ready yet. And Coquelin is a promising CENTRAL MID (not RB ideally).
Not exactly an ideal situation. I think we have to assume that Sagna will miss half the season, given the gravity of his injury.
We need to get a right back in, because half a season with unproven right-backs WILL be costly.
Remember, we're a Champions League club, playing against the likes of Aguero, Hazard and Nani. Would you fancy Jenkinson in a one-on-one against one of them?
Do you share my worries, people of ja606, or do u believe one of the two players mentioned will make the step up at right back this year?

Jenko
Ideally they'd both play a few, maybe one would really stand out and fill the gap until Sagna comes back. But I would really like to see Coq end up in midfield as you say. Maybe a better second choice would be good. But the fact that Jenko is a local boy makes me want to really see him succeed

I swear Sagna is already training.

Jenko would only play the first one or two games hopefully. He'll do fine against Sunderland and it will be very useful to have his height against Stoke. As long as he keeps his arms down, he'll be very useful to have.

Jenkinson is simply just back up right now, I'm not confortable with him starting the first few weeks
