Like most of the team
I kinda dropped out of FIFA world since 2017 completely
but Arsenal today resembles something like Everton from early 2010s,
Tierney
Papastathopoulos
Pépé (lol 80 millo? 1 goal in 9 games)
Dani Ceballos
Ainsley Maitland-Niles
Holding
David Luiz (oh look Arsenal brought in a clown)
Moussaka
Rolf I mean back in 2010/2015 team already resembled "shadow of Henry day Arsenal) with Song/Wilshere/Ramsey/Van Persie etc but at the very least every season one-2 of those would step up and have some really good even world class displays that would ignite the team and even make some deadwood crap players (lol Chamakh etc) not look so bad.. but seriously this team mad trash, what excuses owners now tell to gullible arsenal fans - since I am pretty sure stadium is long paid off by now? Or spending 80 m on Pepes new norm now? When someone paid 80m in 2015 dat nigga was expected to come in and tear that league a new hole.
Going to break down the people you mentioned just to clarify;
Tierney --> recently bought from Celtic and he looks really, really good. He's what we were lacking in LB since ages (remember we had Andre Santos at one period)
Sokratis --> had a solid season, he's a no nonsense defender who performs regulary. Happy with that transfer
Ceballos --> on loan from Real, he's basicly a replacement for Ramsey and has done well at that, hope we get him perm
Maitland-Niles --> Academy product and has been really good for two seasons now, he can play pretty much everywhere and has had the hard task of replacing for Bellerin at RB
Holding --> one of the last transfer from Wenger and this guy is good, I'm a massive fan of him and when he plays, we are way more secure
David Luiz --> felt like a good transfer but he's been hit and miss I agree
Not sure who you mean on the last name
As for Pepe, the guy has it, just needs to come out. We need to allow him to adapt to the premier league but everyone can see that he's going to be good, really good. He's been our most creative player and the goals and assist will come.
Overall the players aren't that bad at all, the team is going to be really different with Bellerin and Tierney as our fullbacks.
Main problem right now looks to be Emery. He makes the wrong tactical choices --> playing Torreira at 10 for example.
