You nailed it. What I don't get is the board seem very calm about the treatment of Pepe and Saliba. They greenlighted the purchases so it's confusing.Because Arteta is heavily invested in Willian's success. Willian was his signing. He's ready to sacrifice Pepe and Nelson to ensure that Willian succeed.
You see Lampard under all sorts of pressure to ensure Havertz and Werner work. I reckon the damage is done with our signings though.
