Maybe the new Sporting Director will convince Arteta that he can widen his choices a bit. The absolute failure of Sterling should help. I’m sure it was partially Arteta’s choice, given that he’d worked with him at Man City, etc. If Arteta’s judgment of a player can be so far off that he didn’t realize Sterling was completely done, maybe he can put less confidence in his own judgment and trust the scouts and analysts to give him picks that he wouldn’t otherwise know about.
