Riou
In The Winchester, Waiting For This To Blow Over
Country: Northern Ireland
Player:Gabriel
Its a pretty dead position along with the slower wide CAM. Clubs just not moving for the likes of Özil, Ziyech, Fekir & Eriksen this summer even with the availability / low buyouts / short deals.
Hard to see it coming back either anytime soon.
Such a shame, love a quality wide playmaker...the 07-08 season was our best at the Emirates, and a big reason for that was having Rosicky and Hleb wide with Cesc being our fulcrum...liquid football!
A high pressing team is something I also admire, but our style under Wenger will never be bettered.
