Just to be clear... a 21st century "wing back" is a winger who tracks back to help a back three.
Same way as we expect our "wingers" to track back and double up. He's NOT a wing back my hole. 😁
He, like Milner, fancies himself as a midfield general... end of. 😉
Lot of truth in that - certainly his aspirations but ambition is no bad thing.......backed up by the ability anyhow.
I remember he had a spell playing centrally for the Arse a couple seasons back to rave reviews......but Wenger moved him again (possibly to accompdate Ozil) or an injury.
I see him playing centrally and an option either wide in the front 3 or in behind if Jürgen wants to juggle his formation.
We'll see soon enough. I've always liked his directness and that he can move the ball quickly. Arsene's love of and need for Aaron Ramsay's goals have seen him get the nod AND restricted this kid at times in my opinion.
I could be talking out my arsene but I believe there's a lot of potential in AOC.......
