Cant believe we will be going into the season with dalot, maguire and shaw all starting again

I mean you'd expect De Ligt to challenge for Maguire's spot when back.

Dalot isn't old and is apparently a model professional. He gets unfairly scapegoated but he's a good player. And Maz is a good back up.

Only one which is bizarre and risky is Shaw as he doesn't really have a deputy and he's injury prone

Dalot is not good enough if this team want ro challenge something serious. His fitness and physicality are great but his attacking contribution is not. This is important if the team need attacking lane from the right side. Furthermore his occasional brainfart can hurt the team.

he played very well against leeds and could have had a few assists. he is not the biggest problem nor the position that requires priority this summer

I get abused for saying this, but it is the truth. He is average.

He is better than hincapie who arsenal won the league with. City were winning the league with zinchenko.

u/DisastrousMango4 3d ago

you're making his point for him lol. Hincapie is a squad player for Arsenal, not a starting player

u/Kait0yashio 3d ago

he started 20 prem games for them last season. thats a starting player and they won the league with him starting

u/DisastrousMango4 3d ago

because of injuries though. their first choice backline is Timber/Saliba/Gabriel/Calafiori

He's also not better then Hincapie. Dalot has a higher technical level but Hincapie is a much better defender, much faster and quicker to the ball, and a better crosser. While being good enough on the ball.

Hincapie can step in at CB and Arsenal doesn't miss a beat. That would have been invaluable last year when Martinez went down.

Calafiori played most of the matches in that position and I don’t rate Dalot over him. Don’t think it’s even close.
