Agree with the above. I think this lad is starting to look real quality. Glad to tie him down

Great news. Looks a class act. Apparently Henry was teaching him how to take players on down the win while he was playing full back.

The story was a misquote and discredited.

Happy to hear he has a deal, is an industrious and intelligent player.

Like him as a player but this goes to show nothing is changing, we are rewarding potential and so far its not worked, when will the cycle be broken?

All this talk of potential, well he's already shown he has more skill than Walcott. Him and the Ox both should be getting the nod ahead of him. Good news though.

This

its obvious that Theo needs to have some competition, but i think Wenger is under the impression that if Theo loses games to the likes of Coquelin and Ox then he will go to another club. Wenger needs to show some 'mental strength' of his own and try these guys out, maybe Theo will get better as a result.

Had a poor game yesterday for Charlton, still would rate him certainly now given our injuries and Flamini. There has to come a time when you stop having potential and start delivering. Afobe another one on loan got a hat-trick yesterday.

Another instantly forgotten Joe Average Frenchman signed by There's Only One as a substandard replacement for a better departing player

Excellent news should add an extra couple of quid on his value when we flog to continue the Sa-onegoal experiment.

Youngster looks the real deal, has a handful of decent appearances then we give them a long term contact and they turn shit...


Hope I'm wrong.
You weren't wrong.

The Flamini is strong in this one. :roll: :roll:

The lad isn't good enough, simple as that.

If I remember correctly, wasn't he a better full back than a DM? :rubchin:
