He did it a LOT last season. On balance maybe it’s worth it, but I think the impact of both him and Jesus was overstated last season, I think the team in general improved a lot and they were part of that. But it’s not that their signings were literally why we got better. Gabriel, White, Saliba, Martinelli, Partey, Odegaard and Saka are our best players, Jesus and Zinchenko do not make that list.
If you can’t see the difference Zinchenko made to our buildup play then I cannot help you
Some of these people live in an alternate reality I swear
Yes, but it’s not Zinchenko that uniquely did that, it was just replacing Tierney with a more apt passer. There are many other players who can do that. Ultimately it was the change of system that benefitted us, and the change of personell was a necessary part of that but that does not mean that their individual quality is irreplaceable or is what made us good. He’s a good player but very flawed as well, Stevie Wonder could see that.
