Christensen is the smoothest of the bunch. Good on the ball, looks the most in control of all of them. Rudiger and Zouma are good athletes, but not great footballers, in my opinion. I'd try to keep Christensen around because he brings a different style of play.
Christensen is smooth in the same way Lindelof is smooth.

Meh I'm alright the other positions are fully stacked.... Just need a proper RB. And Dest is fun to watch.

Lindelof isn't that bad. He had a bad game. It happens.
Lindelof isn’t bad if he’s played in the right role and system. I think Chelsea, United, Arsenal, and Spurs are all in the same spot with CB. Basically they have some pieces in place but everyone is playing a spot higher than they should. Take United for example. Maguire should be your second best CB, Lindelof third, Bailly is fine as third, Tuanzebe fourth.

Does anyone feel Aouar is not the player Arsenal needs? I feel he is a great player and is an improvement to their midfield, but I feel stylistically they can use more of a destroyer or scoring mid. I’m not sure.

Definately think so, Aouar is an amazing dribbler and good ball progressor but we already rank extremely high in those departments. We need a final third killer passer, like Özil when he was allowed to play. Our ranking for key passes and chances created is a joke, while our ball progression is very good already.

A ball winner and someone like Ödegaard or Grealish maybe would be nice. I would just start Özil for now

Both shouldn't be starting for top level clubs that's for sure

I'm not high on either from watching them. Statistically Christensen is better overall, but not in all areas.

We bought Mendy, so goalkeeper to Chelsea speculation is pretty much over at this point.
Doubt it.

Wouldn't be surprised if we loaned Kepa or something. Caballero is below average yet is better than kepa by a decent margin. If there's a report that Lampard sees Kepa as third choice, I wouldn't be surprised

You think we're still going to buy another keeper?

Skriniar very overrated. Maybe a change of scenery helps but he has been trending down since his very good first season. The figures quelled for him are kind of ridiculous, but United ruined the CB market by giving 80 for Maguire.

Just saw that Spurs head of recruitment was photographed in Milano.

In general I am kind of indifferent to acquiring Skriniar. While Spurs do lack quality in their central defense, they have enough depth there in my opinion. Gives Tanganga a much harder time to play too, which I don't like. Also, I'd much prefer someone that is left-footed.

But once again, where is all this money coming from, holy shit.
