Arsenal look to have secured another major summer transfer, with Dutch defender Jurrien Timber arriving from Ajax. However, the Gunners have moved for Timber when a host of Europe’s top clubs have been hesitant to, so what exactly has Mikel Arteta seen that others haven’t?

Great vid. I've subscribed, and you've got 400k. 😉
I think the negative part is really a positive when at the back foot why risk when there is a way better easier option as while in attack you have to make those passes because even though you lose it you are still in their half so i dont really see how that is bad
Thought about this having two fullbacks playing who are both comfortable inverting. Issue is Tierney didn't do that well at all last season when it was asked of him, we very much missed zinchenko's control in midfield when we was injured. Likewise, when timber would invert issue would be zinchenko isn't comfortable in a back three at all
He will evolve under Mikel
Honestly one of the best analysis vids i've watched! That breakdown was CRAZY!
The only problem here is aerial battle
Apart from that he’s a good defender
Your just beating around the bush
Ben white and saka combo is too special
Good content love it
Where does Tomiyasu stand after that tho?
Did you say Zinchenko isn’t good at inverting? 😂😂😂😂
So zinchenko gonna sit out?
“Jurian timber”
I can safely say…ive learnt a lot from this video. Brilliant analysis and ive gain perspective!!
Bro got the price so so wrong
Tierney, Gabi, Saliba? No.
These new signings are not only top class but very versatile
a lot of nonsense being said , contradicting yourself at every turn
I can imagine a backline of Kiwior-Saliba-White-Timber where all 4 players are capable of stepping into midfield for extended periods of time while still having a back 3 of CBs. Opposition teams would be absolutely clueless on how to stop our build up. Only issue is Gabriel doesn't deserve to be dropped and Kiwior probably isn't ready just yet.
You've nailed it
Bro what.
So you’re telling me there’s hope?
Where is Ben White?
I think Kiwior will excel in a back 3 as the furthest on the left
Let Timber invert from RB and Tierney can play LB. I like Zinny we can use him in midfield or at LB against weaker teams but defensively he’s a liability
I think Arsenal are preparing for the 2 options that City might have next season. It’s easy to forget about Cancelo. If he ends up staying back at City, they have 2 options as well, in the playing XI they can invert. Cancelo and Stones. It’s good forward thinking from Arsenal. But yeah, it’s gearing up to be another exciting season nonetheless ❤
Nah rice + partey tbh is way better than rice + fucking HAVERTZ
wow what an amazing video big props
Arsenal. Defence for next season
Rb tomi/white /timber
Lb. Zinny/kiwior/tomi
Rcb saliba/white/tomi
Lcb gabreile/kiwior/white
Its pretty clear arteta wants playera who xan olay multiple role in defence. I dont see tierney fitting in. Newcastle is best team for him
I see what you're saying: Rice was worth blowing big money on as a core DM and then throw in Timber to go alongside or reverse with Zinchenko for flexibility and add in Havertz with Odegaard, it does make a good argument for signings, profiles, systems and in-game flexibility and boosting stats all converging together.
One question I have is, are Arsenal still a bit physically small/slight eg set-pieces as a weakness?
Arsenal look soo scary 😮
You've earned my subscribe
Yeah ….! Top class… ..you are really …..yeah …eh……mmm…like..basicallly…and ….mm…yeah change…Arsenal…..natural…..And ….afford….Mmmm.
