As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.
He wouldn't get a game for one of the relegation fodder. When was the last time you could say that about a gunners player????? How did it go so horribly horribly wrong for us in such a short space of time. Answers on a postcard please.b

No, I don't think he is, but the fact that I need to rack my brains to think of worse players kind of says it all, really!
It's becoming a tired argument, but he is still only 20/21 (I think) so all is not lost... but it's fair to say he should be nowhere near our first team at the moment.
Sell him or, if Wenger really has faith in him, loan him out to a Premier League club and let him develop there.
The Arsenal first team is no place to learn your trade, and should be set aside for top class players and outstanding young players like Cesc and Theo... NOT mediocre talents who may or may not be good enough!
Way I see it is that Song is a central defender, being asked to play a defensive midfield role.
It might not have been so bad in the mid 90's when the game was slower, but in the super fast Premiership, Song is too cumbersome for the role he is being asked to play.
Especially as Arsenal are a team that depend on short fast passes.
