3 Tottenham players that would walk into the Arsenal team

Toby Alderweireld

A number of Arsenal’s issues in recent seasons has been to do with their defence, and the lack of leaders and out-and-out defenders at the club.

Spurs’ Toby Alderweireld is an example of the sort of defender Arsenal need.

He epitomises what defending is all about. He’s strong and always getting his head to things, but he’s also authoritative and, alongside Jan Vertonghen, they bring a calmness to the Spurs backline. The two have created arguably the best centre-half pairing in the league.

Not only that, but Alderweireld is excellent with the ball at his feet, and is able to set up attacks from the back such is his brilliant awareness and vision.

He’s the complete defender, and one that would hugely benefit Wenger’s side.
