Written back in February last year and I still think it could be an interesting option to try. It would probably depend on the team Arsenal are going up against but I like the idea of Trossard in the eight over something like Zinchenko in the eight.

I’ve been calling for this for a while. If Vieira is considered an option in midfield, then Leo should be as well. He has the skills to be very effective in those central areas and he loves to carry the ball from deep, weaving through players, which is something we lack in those areas. Obviously I wouldn’t start him there vs Newcastle or City, but there are a lot of match-ups where he could excell in that position. Contrary to this sub’s belief he’s actually a very competent presser, he ranked third in final third interceptions last season when we bought him.
We’ve already seen him play there a bit last season vs Southampton and in preseason it was his most played position. Recently, because of the Kdb, he’s been starting in midfield for Belgium and has looked really good.
