He’s too good for the championship, he’d be a key player at a number of prem teams. Villa, Chelsea and now Newcastle all showing interest. He’s a fair bit older than Patino and should be entering his prime years.
He’d do the same thing he does for them, for us. Depth, rotation. Chelsea, Newcastle and Villa recruitment the most physical players the market has. Him moving to them won’t exactly fix his situation.
Unless of course they give him Hazard, Salah duties where he can chill and just finish moves. No off the ball work.
No X factor. Small teams can’t play a “team” sport( for lack of a better word). They need an X factor. Someone who stands out and gets you those 10 goals. They don’t have a “front three” or a midfield “3”. They have no solutions off bench.
They don’t have that man.
Proof that player quality is everything. Arteta with shit players: 8th. Arteta with good players: title challenge.
Lack of pragmatism
