KingsX Posted 7 July 2020 Share Posted 7 July 2020 This kid’s been booted to the curb by a club with a worse midfield than ours … in significant part for character issues. A huge part of our rise has been recruiting coachable, high-character young players with Ndidi being only the most shining example. Cannot see us compromising our standard on that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simpson is the obvious one but other than that we've generally signed good lads that have added to the dressing room. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think we’re as bad as them personality wise but you could imagine Chilwell and Maddison taking selfies post match a bit like the one in February 2016. We can play attractive football but struggle in games we can’t out pass teams too, these are all things that Arsenal have been doing for about 15 years 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerbyshireFox Posted 8 July 2020 Share Posted 8 July 2020 Whenever I’ve seen him play against us he has contributed absolutely nothing. He strikes me as a player who thinks he’s tough, but goes missing when it counts. When you watch the third goal we scored against them last season, Barnes shrugs him off easily to lay off to Ricardo to set Vardy up. He spent most of his time remonstrating with the linesman about an imaginary foul! Should’ve conceded a penalty in the game in November as well. He doesn’t take responsibility, he runs his mouth, and when things don’t go his way, throws his toys out of the pram. The fact Arteta has spotted that and wants shot of him speaks volumes. He may grow out of it eventually and show his ability. But when you consider the attitudes of Tielemans and Ndidi who aren’t that much older than him, I don’t see him contributing to the squad in a positive way. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The difference for me is we have a lot of young players, Maddison, Soyuncu, Ndidi, Tielemans, Chilwell, Barnes all under 23! Arsenal have being doing it with seasoned pro's and Internationals!
