London Arsenal legend Gilberto Silva has spoken out about the on-field position of Ukrainian defender Oleksandr Zinchenko in his former team.

"We saw how effectively Zinchenko changed the positions of left-back and central midfielder according to the situation. And I think that if he played as a central midfielder all the time again, it would be very good for Arsenal. Although, of course, in that case the problem of strengthening the left flank of the defence would then have to be addressed.

In any case, it all depends on Mikel Arteta (Arsenal head coach - ed.) and what he wants. Perhaps it's more important for him to have two skilled performers like Zinchenko and Tierney competing for the left-back position, thereby constantly improving their quality and that of the team itself," Metro quotes Silva as saying.
