Tomiyasu

he's better than Zinny

He's so good. Just needs to stay injury free. He should play in the big games, Zinchenko should play against teams that park the bus

Almost anyone's better than Zinny defensively. However Zinny is much better when we are on the front foot.

Well obviously GJ was MOTM but yeah Tomi was brilliant. He's another player, like many under Arteta's stewardship, who starts well but then falls by the wayside.

As others have said, Zinny should only really be playing if neither Jorgy or Partey do, to help in that midfield control

we are missing rob holding

Tomi was injured a lot last year, you can't blame Arteta for that
who else started well and has fallen by the wayside who didn't have an big injury to deter them?

He is just a solid defender. Think he would be very good at CB also

Very reliable and very good as well. Think we’ve finally replaced Bacary Sagna on the defensive side from our fullback

Interesting choice on Saturday, with us likely to have a lot of the ball but Sheffield United probably looking to exploit the aerial ball.
I think I speak for most in saying Jorginho should be dropped for an attacking player, which makes Zinchenko's inclusion more likely. However Tomiyasu is clear in terms of defending and in the air.
