That was the kind of performance that puts the big fish in the European pond on high alert.

If the club hierarchy even dream about selling him, they better wake up and apologise 

Throw the bag at him, tie him down for life

Should be a lesson really. 

 

The fact that a few (and it is a minority) immediately leapt on Thiaw last night, have downplayed Ramsey’s recent form and can't just say "well played" when Elanga has a good game is very telling.

Said it before! He’s so good that he could easily have played for that prime Barca with Xavi, Iniesta and so on. What a player!

The thing about Hall for me is that I'm still constantly surprised by his dribbling. His success rate when taking players on is unreal, he's almost more like tricky right winger who'd cut inside and shoot.

still not worked out why opposition teams seem surprised that he can dribble past them all. Nobody seems to have tried to stop him.

 

he has the natural balance of Ben Arfa. They’ve done so well to work with him physically to get this level out of him.

His small size and low centre of gravity is a big advantage, along with body strength. He's almost like a tiny Joelinton the way he can roll people and get himself between them and the ball. But better when running with it too.

well he’s definitely not wasted there, no. 

 

I do think he’d make a ludicrous CM - either 6 or 8 - but we don’t have another dedicated left back in the entire squad so it’s a bit of a pointless debate atm.

Suspect we’ll offer him an improved contract in the summer. I hope we do anyway.

 

Seems like he’s got three years left and is on average money (by PL standards).

 

Give him a significant bump and get another three years whacked on top.

Best left-back in the world by a mile! 

And worryingly, the rest of the world is starting to sit up and take notice.

 

He's going to be coveted by all of the elite clubs in the 12-18 months.

Was watching Nico O'Reilly for City last night, he was absolutely awful - I'm sure he's a really good midfielder, but never in a million years is he a full back. And Skelly shouldn't even be in the conversation.

Hall is miles ahead of all the competition at left back for England, should honestly be the easiest position to select for after Pickford, Rice and Kane.

I was discussing this at work and I honestly couldn't think of anyone who was near Hall (for England). 

 

Is Lewis Skelly even playing regularly for Arsenal?

He's not, and even when he does he's levels below Hall.

Probably third choice LB now behind Calafiori and Hincapie.

Aye, his biggest competitor for LB for England is probably Livramento

It's between Hall and Nico O'Reilly for the starting spot, unless Tuchel plays Tino LB and James RB. I think those are the 4 FBs he'll take anyway. Hall should be well ahead of O'Reilly by now.
