    Either him or Tomiyasu. I don’t know if this is recency bias,…but I don’t think we had such an impactful RB since 2010. I know Bellerin and Sagna were good, but what these 2 current players offer (on the ball, moving foward, defensively, passing, control) is something else.

      I think Sagna in many ways was a more mature and better Tomiyasu. Trustworthy, plays his role, does whatever he’s asked to do as far as build-up, attacking or anything that’s not defending adequatly; but an absolute monster when defending. Large, fast, agile *and* disciplined is one hell of a combination.

      Ben White might fit Arteta’s plan better than Sagna does/did, but Sagna was a better player and overall more impactfull.
