Arsenal icon Ian Wright believes that duo Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko were key signings this summer for the Gunners, claiming they're like two players in one. The pair made the switch to North London from Manchester City, costing roughly a combined £75million.
Their quality, versatility and attitude have all been points praised by Mikel Arteta since they joined the club in the summer, having already worked under him when he was assistant manager with the Citizens. Zinchenko has had a stop-start beginning to the campaign after suffering a few injury concerns, but has shown glimpses of his ability as well as the tactical flexibility at the manager's disposal.
Discussing his place in the side, Arteta said: "We encourage him [to move into midfield] and he’s a midfield player playing as a full-back, it gives us the adaptability and the variety of positions to attack and defend spaces. It’s an extra weapon to have because we are more unpredictable."
