If we are serious about building a team with strength in depth, then we have to keep him.

Heās actually the perfect squad player for a side that wants to compete for all the major trophies.
He can play across the back four and as a fullback he can overlap, underlap or just tuck into the midfield and join the pivot.
Iāve seen this EL comment about him before and feel like it really undermines how good he is.

How good is Tomi in reality? Heās a solid defender with mobility with just enough technique to play in this side. Heās definitely not a shutdown FB or a FB who can interplay in midfield well nor is his impact in the offensive third worth shouting about.
Heās solid depth who isnāt going to bitch about playing time, I really appreciate that. Thereās no need to make him out to be something other than that. Heās not good enough to consistently start but he a level above the likes of Cedric or Tierney who are barely ECL players.

Timber is better. If he returns to the level before his injury, Tomi could be sold for the right price.
Iād want to keep him, but 50m (Iām making this number up) is the spot where it probably makes sense to sell.
Cb: Saliba, Gabby, White, Timber, Kiwior
Rb: White, Timber
Lb: Timber, Zinny, Havertz!
Is Tomi a better option than any of that? Iād actually habe him over Zinny, but 50m for a back up lb is sell territory.
friends we need more than a good starting XI, especially players who can play several positions. Our bench was kinda garbage against Brentford, we will always have injuries and we want to compete in several cups each season.
Also he is really sound positionally at RB which is a good combo with Zinny on LB being an attacking midfielder most of the time.
No sale.

Incredible performance from Tomisyasu. Defensively as always he looked composed and stable. Willingness to attack and exploit the areas.
He has definitely improved on his game and deserves the salary he has been demanding.

there was no need for him to panic clear plus he had Saka to pass to.
Clever pass by Tomiyasu. There was no need to be precise, just boot it to Martinelliās zone
You look at Tomiyasu & Kiwior adaping their game and you wonder why Tierney was so unwilling.

Maybe they couldnt they could just manage to play in one position well in a certain way and outside of that they struggled in a huge way.

He really picked up his form after the absence and a few shaky games at first, now heās back to performing like a stud again, great player to have in the squad.

Tomigol got bored of pocketing elite premier league forwards. Got the whole set.
Now heās collecting assists for every Arsenal player.
Gotta catch them all!

When was the last time we had so much quality in the back line? 90s surely?
White is on the bench, Timber is out, I truly think Kiwi is a top player too. This is absolutely, undoubtedly tittle winning quality.
Really didnāt see him coming back to this level after being interruped with injuries for year and a half. Really liked him form the start, so happy to see him going back to his top level.
Tbf, if Timber didnāt get injured we probably wouldnāt be seeing much of him at all this season.
He took his chance and now he plays quite an important role.

White has some real competition developing with Tomi, heās been killing it
Love to see this level of depth, people canāt afford to drop their level because others are waiting to seize their opportunity
