Success isn’t guaranteed of course, but at least the north Londoners appear to be doing everything they can to keep themselves at the top end of the Premier League when the season begins again in a few weeks time.

The Frenchman was injured against Sporting during a Europa League tie last season, and his absence thereafter had a marked effect on how Arsenal played from that point.
It’s difficult to say how much closer to the title Arsenal would’ve got with Saliba in situ, but it’s likely that it wouldn’t have been the procession it eventually became for Man City.
