If you're not striving to improve, you'll end up going backwards.

hes loving terrible so i'd love to see one of these teams splash out on a player who hasnt progressed in anyway since he was 18

I think so, maybe it's a false dawn but although he really hasn't progressed at all for most of his time watching him this year he's been alot more solid and improved considerably compared to the season before. Him being able to fill in in the back three is also really useful

Every now and then he looks like he's progressing but then he picks up a knock and injury and goes out for 3 months. When he comes back he's poo poo again and the cycle repeats itself.

So you're saying he'll be a good player as soon as he leaves Arsenal?

Actually a lot of these players pick up permanent injury problems from years of mismanagement.

He's always been really reliant on his pace and workrate. People hoped he might be able to do things other than run fast after 6 years.

He's also one of the best dribblers and crossers at Arsenal so he's worth keeping around on the wing. If he can stay fit, which is a big ask for any Arsenal player, then he'll play a big role in the next season.

He's no good at crossing, I don't know what that was all about. The only good crossers at Arsenal are Alexis and Ozil. Everybody else is piss.

This is accurate. He also loses the ball in possession a lot for a guy who is supposedly good at dribbling.

Probably has at least partially to do with meeting a quota of English/homegrown players or something like that.

He's no worse than any of the posts about Arsenal in this thread. In fact he's better because sometimes what he says is true.

Giroud scores a lot of goals from crosses but Wenger refuses to start him because he prefers lean, lithe, nubian lads.
