Former Arsenal defender Mikael Silvestre has shared his thoughts on the choice between Oleksandr Zinchenko and Jakub Kivior for the left wing-back position of his former team. Recall, the latter displaced the Ukrainian from the main squad of the "canoniers", taking advantage of his injury.
Mikael Sylvester"Kivior's playing profile is more defensive than Zinchenko's. Clearly, it's down to the coach's choice here, but with Kivior in the line-up, Arsenal become more solid than with Zinchenko, and the team's defensive line looks more reliable.
The defensive back four of Kivior, Gabriel, Saliba and White is a really strong unit. Finally, Kivior is much taller than Zinchenko (189 cm vs. 175 cm - ed.) and this also speaks in favour of him being a better candidate for the left-back position," Arsenal True Fans quoted Sylvester as saying.
