Ben White is my favourite player in this current team and even I voted for Sagna. It’s not even close. Dude carried that defense for years and basically in every position.
That’s funny because I was a big Sagna fan and he never got a lot of credit around here as being a really top player, and he got even less credit with other fan bases. I remember people saying that he wasn’t at that elite level because he couldn’t cross. I thought his crossing was decent. Just seems like the prescription of him really changed around here.
All through those years I felt a kind of calmness when I saw his name on the teamsheet. Big premier league fixtures, European away matches, whatever. I just felt like it was going to be okay with Sagna on the pitch.
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.

Because our defense was dogshit for like ten years except kos mert pairing, Benny would have carried it too

Are you fucking mad? Tomiyasu over Sagna? Seek help.
Thank you very much
